waynne I enjoy walking I only use the car for long journeys but if the walking distance take more then 30 minutes going from point A to point B yes then I will use my car. I think it has its own charm walking down the high street and saying hello to familiar faces, at least it get people talking. What I am sad about is in England Govt haven’t given much thought about footpaths and other means so that people can safely walk around the town as compared to European countries.
