Am seriuosly thinking about selling my car what with diesel so expensive now and it just costs a bomb to run the blessed thing! We'd then be a one car family but i can walk dd to school when she starts in sept and there is a bus route right at the end of my road so can get to town etc. as far as cming goes i can wlak to toddlers twice a week, walk to sports centre for swimming and soft play.

so would you think it a problem if i didn't have car?

Besides I like DS to walk to places, stop him turning into a couch potato.

No problem as long as you can get to things like the park etc walking. In fact I might prefer it, it always used to make me nervous DS being in a car with someone other than me driving [neurotic emoticon]

not at all as long as not having one wont affect your work etc then it wont be a problem. and also its healthier to walk places so everyone wins

Only if you think children melt when it rains (& some parents do )
