[D-U-R-X]

Gonna go see it over Christmas I think... not sure if we might be going on Christmas eve

 

[Liamo_210]

I wouldn't be able to wait that long. It's only been out a few days and the anticipation is is killing me

 

[D-U-R-X]

We don't have a car and town is 40 mins away on the bus. It'd mean we'd be back quite late if we went in the week and we've been mega busy each weekend... sort of a tradition to go on Christmas eve too

 

[Liamo_210]

Ok nice. I live about 20 minutes from the nearest cinema but I have a car so I can go pretty much whenever.

 

[El Presidente]

Aye the cinema is a couple of miles away too. I've got a push bike so when we go places Mrs Presidente normally has to sit on my handlebars. If we use her BMX, I just stand on the stunt pegs.

 

[Liamo_210]

Would it not be easier to walk.

 

[D-U-R-X]

I've a bike, but it's 15 miles to Sheffield and Yorkshire's not the flattest of places

Couldn't imagine Mrs D being too happy sitting on my handlebars either

 

[El Presidente]

Would it not be easier to walk.

I suppose by adding smiley to that, it would have been easier to tell that I was joking.

Not every one gets my humour.

 

[Liamo_210]

I was wondering why your wife would have a bmx

 

[wyndslash]

Just walk

 

[Liamo_210]

Easier said than done wynd

 

[El Presidente]

I was wondering why your wife would have a bmx

Because she's all about the stunts.

 

[Liamo_210]

So did you meet her at a skate park or something

 

[Liamo_210]

Morning all.

Um off to work. Woke up a little late maybe,no one will notice

 

[wyndslash]

Morning liam still the same day for me

 

[Liamo_210]

It always is for you, yet you.still.seem to be on here all the time

 

[Liamo_210]

Back from work early today, going to leave to see the hobbit in 2 hours.

Enjoy... no spoilers though, please

We don't have a car and town is 40 mins away on the bus.

That's one of those things I don't think I could get used to. We have two cars, and I am thinking of picking up a pickup truck to keep around for snow and errands.

Don't worry I never spoil. I hate people who do though

Ye I wouldn't be able to get used to it either just not being able to go out in thr snow DRIVES me crazy

 

[D-U-R-X]

I've gotten used to not having a car. Having changed jobs for one in the town I live in helps (20 mins on a bike). We used to run 2 cars... I have no idea how though... we couldn't afford to run one, let alone 2 any more!!

We have one car the wife needs to get to events and work, but I'm solely on public transit. While DC is pretty good with the bus system and subway system, there's still quite a few holes.
I'll sometimes wait 30-40 min for a bus to get home after a long day at work. If I drove, it'd be under 20. But it certainly is helpful on nights we go out and imbibe and don't have to worry about driving.

 

[Liamo_210]

That's the good thing about public transport dread

 

[breadnatty08]

That's the good thing about public transport dread

Yep, and we cab occasionally. I close one night a week so it's after the buses are done. Pricey, but at least I can get to bed sooner.
