Well Tuesday 22nd January was a challenging one for this eco-warrior - following the malfuntioning laptop came the complete destruction of my car following a RTC. On the same day!!!! No longer an RTA I am informed. A Road Traffic Accident suggests it was an accident and it has now been decided that as this is a matter of opinion it will now be called a Road Traffic Collision.
So the collision has rendered me car-less so I am once again faced with do I replace it or not? I am thankful I did not rush out and replace my laptop as I simply removed the "enter button" twiddled around a bit and now it seems to be working again fine. I have failed to repair the "backspace" button however I am managing fine without it. Result! Now the car is not going to be quite as simple as that - no amount of twiddling will rescue Felix the Fiesta from car heaven!
So life without a car! I already use the bus a lot however there are some things which are diffficult without a car - for example transporting The Green Workshop to the Brighton Science Festival. Well my options are - in order of greeness - walk, take a bus, take a taxi, car club, hire a car, buy a car. Watch this space!
