we have one car and do use it a lot, we can't get to work without it as ther eis no public transport here and even from the closest place, it would take over 2 hours to get to work and the same to get home, frankly it's not an option
having said that, i don't drive the car, i have a licence but haven't driven for more than 2 years.....when mr nanny goes on one of his courses i either hitch a lift with one of the other people at work, if she isn't available, then i have to take the time off
i don't feel lost without a vehicle and have been know to walk miles and miles rather than use one anyway, in fact i feel strangle independent without a car somehow
they cost a whole lot of money to keep and run
when we get to our new life, we will keep the car but will use it a lot less and i think we will both feel the benefit of that financially and otherwise.... |
