Actually I have thought about that. It would make things easier but it's not a necessity. We lived here for 2 years without having a car so it's not essential.
It's definitely a convenience factor, but then I've considered getting a £500 car or something sometime later. The thing is, I'm struggling to justify the car now I don't need it for work and not only would it be more fun to have a bike, it would be more practical because I could commute on it. Whereas the car just sat outside on the street all the time.
If I wanted a car for a weekend to take the kids away, and we couldn't go by train, then I'd borrow or hire one. I'd hardly need it.
