I told you you have to change- though the bus is not expensive by UK
standards. You might have mentioned you'd checked all the routes- and
saved some posters doing their own research for you. EASY and CHEAP are
relative terms anyway. If you'd asked "if their a way of taking a single
journey from LHR to Dover for $20" then you would have got a simple
answer- but you would have known that already...
