@Sjp1146614Sjp @but_cyclists @LordElpus3 @Ye_Olde_Holborn No. Road pricing in lieu of fuel duty. Only drive 100 miles a year, pay less as a result, a boost to the classic car market

@Sjp1146614Sjp @but_cyclists @LordElpus3 @Ye_Olde_Holborn Fuel duty makes no exemption for rural dwellers, short journeys or trips that should be discouraged such as school runs. Road pricing could solve these problems *if* properly implemented

@exQUIZitely The hours I lost to this game remind me I am Gen X and have an attention span longer than a few seconds

@NickJF75 Decades on creating car-dependency did this. We need the homes but ended up with soulless suburbia instead of medium density walkable neighbourhoods

@AllyFogg My second guess was MOURN, this Brit wasn't going to get that otherwise

@exQUIZitely Nigh on impossible when only playing with the jeep. Great in 2 player mode and that soundtrack...

@julianHjessop If the supply of something is limited, increasing demand won't help anyone. I've already noticed drivers going slower in the last few weeks

[Ed Donohue @ed_don]

@theashrb Nothing will change. Drivers will still drive half a mile for the school run, arrive early to grab a space and sit there with the engine running

[Ed Donohue @ed_don]

@JeremyVineOn5 I can't use a screen at work without an annual assessment but can pass my driving test at 17 and never have to update my learning. 100% yes to retesting, think how much nicer the roads would be if you removed the bad drivers.

@gmiller Owner of several turbo 4s over the years, my current one reached 310k last week. Service regularly and let the engine idle for 30 seconds before moving or switching off and it'll be fine

[Ed Donohue @ed_don]

@WilJay_1 308k miles on my daily, still runs sweet thanks to full service history from new and very little urban driving

@elsathora Calstock is such a beautiful part of the world

@fesshole Better than drinking great wine and having terrible sex I suppose

[Ed Donohue @ed_don]

@itsme_urstruly Get rid of your TV, move to a walkable neighbourhood, sell your car, don't have kids

[Ed Donohue @ed_don]

@anon_opin Pavement parking is a bigger problem than bikes and scooters on paths will ever be

[Ed Donohue @ed_don]

@JSMilbank And Henry is infinitely repairable with spares readily available from the manufacturer or third parties. I have examples at work dating to the 1990s (albeit in Triggers Broom format)

[Ed Donohue @ed_don]

@Hanx896 @marksuttonbike Higher fuel duty would incentivise shorter supply chains. Fewer lorries on the road and a boost for local suppliers would be two of the benefits

@oldyzach Settlers II was peak Settlers, it refined the economy of the first game without losing the playability that was lacking in the sequels

[Ed Donohue @ed_don]

@VronP7 @G_plus_C @NationCymru An estate car won't make up for the other shortcomings in the owner's life

[Ed Donohue @ed_don]

@MuseumCommodore It would have to be Colonization, Settlers or Pinball Dreams
