Later this month we are going to london to see les mis,we have two together railcard,my questionis can we use this to get cheap tube tickets?also we will be in london for 3 days can you get oyster cards for 3 days?thank you in advance for any helpful answers.

You can get Oyster cards for three days you can also use contactless debit and credit cards

wow that was quick,thanks calmck,it's years since we've been to london so we are not up to date with tube travel.

So easy just to tap your bank card entering and leaving a station.

Yes, just use your contactless debit card. I spent many frustrating minutes at the ticket machine trying to pay for a ticket before I realised I could just tap my card on the gate 
Each person needs to have their own card though, so might be tricky if you have children with you.

Gotta hide our affections (You'd see)
Make it out, like it's blind intention
Don't want a perfect display (Ah)
Don't wanna advertise our affection, so I'll say
(I think you need me)
I don't care if it's unromantic

So sorry - just put this on wrong thread!

The 2 together card won't help with tube or bus travel but as far as I know, prices are just the same for tap and go with a contacless card, as they are with an Oyster card, so need to both if you both have cards. 

I like to use buses in London and if you do then you can tap and go on there too. Any seniors can use their bus passes. 
 

Enjoy the show! What else do you have planned? Sone places offer 2for1 with a train ticket.
