I learned something new today, and that is today 22nd September is what is known as World Car Free Day. Apparently , this is the one day of the year when we are not supposed to use our cars. I wonder how many people try not to use their cars today. Will you be using yours?

@TheGreater It would be nice if they did. What make of car would you choose if you could get one for free. I think that I would choose one of the new electric cars that I would never be able to afford in real life.

@lazydaizee I do not have a car. I have a mobility scooter and did not use it today because did not need it.

@lazydaizee One time there were not many but now there are lots of them. For me it took time to get used to it but now I could not do without it.

@Starkinds It would be interesting to see if people could give up using their cars for a whole day. But I doubt if many will in the UK today because after many weeks of sunshine , it is now raining very hard.

I did not know about it either until this morning when I visited a website where they were running a poll to see if people would be willing to give up using their car for one day.
