      If you’re a local you wouldn’t buy a day ticket. You’d bit a bundle of 5 or 20 days that are £6 or £5 a day.

      If you were a local you wouldn’t buy a day ticket. You’d buy a bundle of 5 or 20 one day passes that work out at £6 or £5 respectively.
      Interesting that FK and PCB both agreed on £18 for Ride Cornwall

      Saw the back end of 504 in the sheds today. Looks to be an all over white design with Royal Navy logos and wording so it doesn’t appear to be for Pride after all.
