I used it to keep the frost off the drive.
What did you use your car for today?

28 miles, work and back. Dropped into 88yo mums to make sure she's ok...which she is.
Across town to see the grandkids, both have a virus, their mums not well, g/s has just got conjunctivitis so volunteered to go get some eye drops for him.
On the way home, dropped into Dunelm to get some net curtain rod mounts. Nets are now re mounted.
Probably 45 miles total today.

Took the dogs round to Dad's to make sure they got on with the other one that lives with him. First time the van has been used in ages.

I didn't and when it reaches end of life I wonder whether I will bother replacing it.

I used it as impromptu workbench while I tidied up the garage a bit. Aside from the MOT saga, it hasn't rolled a wheel in 5 weeks.

The van is parked outside, unloved and unused. It hasn't moved for the last ten days. Lord knows what it costs me on a per mile basis.

Indeed. Any situation where I'm expected to be presentable, gets a car journey. It's hilly round here and even a short trip can have me sweating buckets.

I used my wife 's car to go to the chemist this morning as I have a painful sore throat.

We did a pleasure drive over the Honister Pass, doffed my cap and stopped to let an ascending cyclist have more room just near the top at the finish of a west to east cycle. Looked brutal for him.

Would rather have not used the car today, but...
Significant other, child 1 (sick), and myself were transported the one mile to the kindergarten to see some daft winter spectacle child 2 was partaking in. Typical parking scenario where forty cars (the vast majority have come by foot, thankfully) are trying to fit into too small a space. The snow is compacted to about two foot high in places. Ten minutes of argy-bargying and it's safe to disembark. Exchange conciliatory words with other drivers. We see our darling little three-year-old angels dressed in white sing something in a foreign language - beautiful. Everyone rushes off. Not us, we are last out. But, then we drive to the shop...

I haven't driven my car since early October but yesterday I went out with SWMBO to John Lewis in her car to look at things we may need. The upside was the free coffee and cake that they give us via a voucher 4 times a year.
