I was listening to LBC97.3 with only one ear just in case there was some real news amongst the torrent of spin about [edited for the sake of my sanity] and am sure I heard that from February the xxth(?) there would be a cap on daily charges. I just checked on oystercard.com and they say they are looking at the prospect. I hope it happens soon.
