Tayport & Work

In the plans for tomorrow’s day out, I decided I could do with a One-Ticket. At the moment, you can use these from Dundee via Fife to all points south… and buy one from any PayPoint, but it has to be bought from someone on the Fife side of the water, as they are the only ones with the sealing laminate cards.


“So the story goes…” as Blur said once.


I got to Tayport, and went to the newsagents in the street near the Post Office. Initally, they didn’t know what I wanted, which was perhaps to be expected… then “Do they do those in Scotland…” After a discussion with her husband, and pulling out the terminal to show me the options, we finally managed to get it printed off, at the correct price of £11.20, dated for tomorrow. But no cards.


I had a look back to their website, and filled in the contact form. A shuttle of emails then went back and forth re the cards, and some cards were sent out in the mail… just in case… but for the meantime, it may be possible to send some cards to two Dundee outlets. There have been a few cases of sending cards to outlets who lose them, so it would appear if they send some to somewhere that someone might ask for them, then the chances of them being chucked are more minimal…


Anyway, from home to Tayport to Perth Road to work then back home again…
