I may be commuting part-way by bus soon - what's the score with Oyster Cards, Travel Cards and Bus Passes? Which is best/cheapest or in what combination? Anybody?

I've got an oyster card for trips to London - really easy to use and works out quite cheap. Have a look at the Transport for London web site - you should be able to check out your route and what options are best for you.

you can get a season ticket on your oyster card

Oyster card always. You can get pay as you go, in which case it is £3.95 maximum per day if you only use buses, or you can get a bus pass on it for £16 a week / 63 quid a month.
Buses aren't too bad if the route has bus lanes, not much slower than the tube.
Bikes are obviously better - only sensible way to travel in London. If you need to catch rush hour trains too, then a folding bike is probably cheaper in the long term than public transport.
