So far so good. 5 weeks and counting.
I still need to try and reclaim the almost £40 VED duty paid by DD 01/03/21 after I sold the car 27/02/21.
Local shops are 1 mile away...in 20 odd years I think I’ve only ever driven there a handful of times. My old mum lives one mile away so no probs visiting her, I’ve great walking on my doorstep, choice of two local railway stations and a half decent bus service for linear walks and shopping in larger urban areas.
I do miss driving, but as leisure travel is only just beginning to ease it’s been no hardship.
I’m still conflicted as to whether to hold on until I can get the exact spec/ vehicle I want, or buy an old banger privately as a ‘put me on’ until I can drive down to Spain late September...which is looking increasingly unlikely. Who knows.
This is the longest period I’ve been carless since passing my test back in the dark ages.
