Very glad wefe redently fixed our energy tariff and Mrs D drives electric. I do so little mileage in the van the fuel cost could quadruple and it'd still be insignificant.

It cant be that expensive if folk are still driving their kids a quarter mile to school, driving Range Rovers, and belting around like Usain Bolt on acid.

Our road is a rat run as there are a couple of local schools. It's only a short road of 14 houses but it links a housing estate and one of the main local roads. Sitting at the dining table the patio door reflects traffic on the road which is usually quiet but in the afternoon there's the school run with a lot of large cars with one driver one passenger inching along. One of the schools is a highly regarded girls Grammar, on the rare occassion I've been wandering past at collect time it's a bit " Mad Max " with pavement parking and parking across driveways while mummy collects Jemima. The school is on a couple of major bus routes too plus there's a decent cycle lane ( and to be fair, there's quite a few who cycle )
