*ding*ding*ding*ding*ding* WE HAVE A WINNER!
A generation or so ago, the car companies did their damnedest to drive public transport out of business. They succeeded... and now instead of subsidizing something that benefits everyone, we're subsidizing them!
I'm probably going to start making some clothing - simple, basic stuff - once I have the house in gear. I want a wardrobe of elastic-waisted skirts in the hope that I can lose weight and continue to wear them down a couple sizes.
