Compare london to new york, it's quicker to take the d-train to manhatten than drive through the congestion.

Also most of the cars you americans drive wouldn't be considered road legal in the UK, they are too old and dangerous! My montly bus pass probably costs more than your car. :lol:
I'm getting rid of my car you want it :stylin:
If by getting rid you mean giving it away for free I'll have it. I'll send a tow truck right now. :usure:

Looooooool Busted! a pack of 10 or 12.5 g lasts me about the whole week which saves me about a good 20-30 quid, which either goes towards petrol or bashal, not forgetting it has less nicotine, tar and carbon monoxide.
