Roll on April when we go down to 1 car!
See, most of my work can be done from home so those two hours on the bus can be used to work. So it's actually more convenient for me to spend longer travelling as all that time is 'usable' whereas in a car, a good 45 minutes is wasted. But everyone's situation is different!
Luckily for me, except for the short while I lived in Crook, I've always had a direct bus Newcastle and Gateshead, so essentially everything is 2 buses away. Like I've said before, I specifically bought a house because of the X21 (and 18 back then)
