Is it even worth the expense of a car for that?I did 935 miles in the car with 77 trips and only went to the garage to buy petrol four times and still have 3/4 of a tank left![]()
No doubt I will be up as you are going to bed but I think I will just be walking for a few days to give the running legs a rest. Depending on the weather and underfoot conditions, I might try and time a walk to a high point and catch the first sunrise of 2021.I'll be ignoring the NY fuss (as usual), going to bed about 04:00 (as usual), and going to sleep about 05:00 (as usual).
I'll wake up in the NY at about 10:00 feeling more tired than when I went to sleep (as usual), have some breakfast, and then start doing my usual things...
Well, Lidl will be shut so I won't be going shopping, but I'm sure that I will animate some sprites about my laptop screen and call in here to see who got up before I went to bed, who decided that 5 kgs of ice in their bath didn't get the water cold enough, who thinks that Boris is the best thing since sliced bread, and who thinks that sliced bread is the work of Satan!

I would have thought that it gets to the point where it would be cheaper to use taxis, or hire a car now and then when you really needed one?
No plans here to stay up, we don't usually. At the moment my Good Lady is watching Paint Your Waggon.
I’ve barely used mine this year, but also loathe to part with it. In fact, since brimming the tank with petrol way back in spring, the gauge has barely moved! Hopefully if things have improved by late spring/early summer, I might have the occasional jaunt.The trouble is fishing and kayaking, fishing is usually over night and at the spare of a moment and kayaking I would need a car with a roof rack and can be messy at time mud ect and the smell of fish and bait does not go well with car hire companys.
Insurance and VED is only £425 per year or £8 a week and it's there at my beck and call, the car owes me nothing and only worth about £500 if I'm lucky so I'll just keep it
Mo......what sort of time do you go to bed??No doubt I will be up as you are going to bed but I think I will just be walking for a few days to give the running legs a rest.

Usually around 11 or so. If I go any earlier I find it harder than ever to sleep. Usually takes over an hour to get to sleep and often awake again by 4. Just don’t seem to get tired now.Mo......what sort of time do you go to bed??
They've been missing for a few years, but this year has shown just how bad it has got.No reason for me to wait up either as thoroughly scunnered with this year and at best another 3 or 4 months of the same.
We use to have a really spectacular fireworks display best seen from the Main St and the whole town seemed to be there, all with the appropriate drinkables and much happy consumption with old friends. There was a ceilidh which did not start until after the bells and all the boats in blowing their horns.
It was a real community in those days.
Why do you need/want to know that Dave.Mo......what sort of time do you go to bed??
