    I've said yes but due to the nature of my job and the varying times I have never found anybody else willing to share

    I do now with my wife as we both work at the same company. I have car shared before but it was the biggest nightmare ever so I stopped. I have never met anyone as nervous and as bad a driver in my life. The amount of near hits we were in was unreal. I stopped when he turned round after one and said "I have written off every car I have had!"

    Definitely - I've been car sharing for over 20 years - saved me over 90,000 miles. When it's not my turn I like to read a book or sleep.
    It's been useful for the other guy when he's had car trouble or couldn't drive after an operation as I can still take him to work, then we he can drive I get weeks off :D
    If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try - oh bu99er that just cheat :D
