| I'm sorry Alison I shouldn't allow myself to be baited by the ever negative Simon Hayes who seems to hate all changes and fight against them. I couldn't agree more about better public transport. I too walk just about everywhere or take public transport although I can also drive. Since there isn't enough space for everyone who can drive to have and drive a car (especially now so many houses are extended) and the majority of our streets and homes were not built with that in mind - it has become far more dangerous and unpleasant for those who want or need to walk and cycle. We shouldn't be in the position where people feel it is necessary to drive because of this. I have to say I also enjoy not having so many helicopters circling overhead at night now that the road by the cemetery isn't available although it was a useful way to avoid a busy junction. I bought a bike many years ago when I moved to London but found it quite frightening and was disappointed that it had became so competitive and aggressive on the roads. |
