QotD: Environmental Confession

'Fess up: What do you do that's bad for the environment?
Sponsored by One Million Acts of Green brought to you by Cisco.

In all honesty: drive. I commute to work by car two or three times a week, and often drive to family. I could take the train, but don't.

That said, I'm about to get a new car, which is a whole world greener than the old one. Moving in the right direction, but maybe not as fast as I should be.

When driving alone, what do you do? Sing along to the radio? Think about your day? Something else?

iPod Mobile

I listen to podcasts. I have a dock for my iPod in my car (actually, the pic shows my old one, which died about this time last year. I got a new 80Gb one from Lorna & Mum for my birthday).

I spend just under two hours in the car each weekday, so it gives me plenty of time to catch up on the latest podcasts on a while range of subjects.

Sure, sometimes I listen to music, especially if I'm pretty tired, but I do like the intellectual stimulation of talk podcasts when I'm driving the same old route for the umpteenth time.

I'm wondering if the bridge is shut because of the high winds...

This is what some charmer did to my car overnight:

Wing clipped?

Thanks. Oh, and thanks for not leaving your insurance details.

Hot today!

As I was driving to Heathrow last night to pick up a couple of friends, my car indicated that the temperature had hit 36°C. Ouch. The Evening Standard confirmed it later: the hottest recorded day in London.

Luckily, perhaps, our friends live in Florida, and are used to far worse than the worst London offers us.

(I was going to post this last night, but Flickr was "having a massage". And we all know what that euphemism means…)
