Park & Ride

I feel I should blog about this, even though it's stupid:

Today me and Kelly went to Chelmsford, a town about 1 hour away from Ipswich. Kelly's university is based there, so she had to hand some stuff in. It also has a good town centre for shopping, so we were also going to get some things from there.

Instead of driving up and going in to the centre and paying a stupid amount of money for parking in the centre, we decided to use the Park & Ride service. An excellent idea if there ever was one, the Park & Ride station is very close to the motorway, you go in to it and park your car for free. You then buy a £2 return bus ticket that takes you to 5 different stops in the town.
The buses run frequently every 10 minutes from 7am to 7pm, and if you want to leave after 7pm your ticket is valid on the local buses.

It's all very well organised, very convenient, and the Chelmsford service is only one year old so the buses are all very clean!

That's it, I've said it. I enjoyed the service so much that I had to share it with everyone!
