I agree with that.

If I want to go to Exeter I can catch a bus (a two-hour journey there and a two-hour journey back, approx four buses a day) I have to get into Bude, about four miles away. Taxi, ten or twelve quid? Back in Bude I have to get the four miles home, and I live down a lane 3/4 mile from where the extremely rare and badly-timed local bus would drop me off. Or get a taxi for ten or twelve quid... On the other hand, I can be in the multi-storey at the Guildhall in a hour and five minutes if I jump in the car and be sitting on a bench in the sun eating my Marks and Sparks Best Ever prawn butty ten minutes later.

What would YOU do?   And the answer is NOT buy a BLT instead!
