No Miles

For the second time this week my car has had a rare stationary day on the drive and done zero miles – that’s no trip to work, no shopping, no drop-offs or pick-ups of the boy, no walks, no trips, no tea shops – which means no addition to the 3,000 miles plus completed since buying the car just over two months ago, a rate of accumulation that seems excessive and threatens to undermine one of the reasons (saving on fuel) for switching to a smaller car.
