Bus pass applied for.

[Accy cyclist]

I might apply for a disability bus pass, but do I need one now that I've been granted a blue disabled car parking badge?🤔 Then I have to ask if someone wearing tweeds might look inappropriate on public transport? 🤔

Do you never go anywhere out of your immediate area, then?

maybe she does by car?

Yeah, but by the time you reach 60 they'll have been phased out!

Same for me when I reach 66.

If you're eligible for one, apply for it. There's no compulsion on you to use either of them, but one or t'other of them might be useful in different circumstances.

So I’ll cycle or pay for my transport

Mmm, will you still be capable of cycling when you reach 60?

Not sure why I wouldn’t be? Just because you aren’t?

Yes, but i did spray the driver's seat with anti-bac' after I bought it.

Yes, and then when she's out of 'her' area, there might be a use for it. Even if it's only once a year when visiting Auntie Maud ...

you Should have the replaced the whole seat…who knows what has soaked into the foam over the many years and miles of usage (the car is pretty old and leggy iirc) …maybe a previous owner was incontinent…

Do you always remain standing in a pub, or do you take your own folding chair with you wherever you go?

Er, when I was your age I was doing 100 mile bike rides! Now I couldn't turn a pedal! You never know what's around the corner!!🧐

Well indeed, but currently I have no reason to doubt…there’s always electric assist

I do also own a car…

As the milestone birthday rapidly approaches, I have completed the online application for my pass to free bus travel throughout Scotland. With the price of petrol, my intention is to use it!
Feeling old now....

I've had my Boris Card [Free all London Oyster card: Bus, tube, overground, national rail] for close to 7 years, and National Freedom Pass for 18 months - a fantastic boost to traveling around London.
