This week I have been walking to work and I am loving it - its half an hour each way and by the time I get to the office I feel wide awake.

My car is sick at the moment hencing the walking, but I have come to the conclusion I could probably live without a car.  Have some small local shops near by, if I needed to go into town there is always the bus, big supermarket shops can be done online.  The snags I would have is getting the dog to the vets or possibly me to the Dentist or Doctors, but saying that Dentist is 30 mins away by car but as I can get evening appointments and possibly get the train it wouldn't be that bad I suppose.  Doctors is about 3/4 hour from home - but appointments tend to be during work time so I ended up having to take time off which I would rather try and avoid.   The biggest problem would be getting to see some friends where public transport is not an option.

So, the price of fuel is appauling but I am not that bothered - I can live without in theory - but do I take the plung and get shot of car for good!
