When I want to go for a walk, I usually drive to a park, to the ocean, to a natural preserve. I don't react any longer on somebody's weird driving style - it is usually a person who shouldn't operate a vehicle, but has no choice but sit behind a wheal in order to get somewhere,. When I go to visit my son who lives now on a west coast of Florida, I pass the area with speed-traps - they have no good source of income there.Galina L.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9174025374821038087.post-92199022616061960142014-11-03T20:15:34.400+00:002014-11-03T20:15:34.400+00:00Reading is ~12miles away, so walking there & b...Reading is ~12miles away, so walking there & back isn't an option. I have friends who live there, which is why I make frequent trips there. <br /><br />Unfortunately, Reading Borough Council is run by someone who hates motorists, so it's full of traps to catch motorists out and allow the Council (or Thames Valley Police) to extract money from them. My last 4 "offences" were all in Reading.<br /><br />How is driving, where you are?Nigel Kinbrumhttp://nigeepoo.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9174025374821038087.post-46485620992829511612014-11-03T19:23:52.581+00:002014-11-03T19:23:52.581+00:00I would prefer to live in a place which is friendl...I would prefer to live in a place which is friendly for walking most of the time, and with a convenient public transportation, but it is not the case now, and I actually love driving. I started late - after turning 40. May be it is still a novelty.Galina L.noreply@blogger.com
