Buy a bike and take turns cycling into work?
I would love to be able to but my ME/Fibromyalgia prevent this!! I could barely get myself on the bike, let alone actually ride it!!!
Now you have me a tad worried, I hadn't thought of the risks, just the savings...oops! Poor Mr Anon. Now the 'risks' have been brought to my attention, I am leaning towards keeping the cars, especially kmowing the loons that drive on the main road to work and the accidents that have occured.0 -

Thanks for the input. We have tried this. No one who works same shift as me and annoyingly, hubby has someone who lives round the corner who works completely odd shifts compared with his even though they're on the same team..grrr. The nature of DH's role also means he needs to be flexible with the shifts he does.0 -

I get the feeling OP is looking for a "get this car, it'll be cheap to run", but the truth is, it's never cheaper to get another car. Not unless your driving an expensive motor and downgrading to an old banger.“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

If you really want to get rid; let himself take public transport or get a taxi if needed. Only you can price up the different choices you make.Sanctimonious Veggie. GYO-er. Seed Saver. Get in.0 -
