Rationing the land rover

Our land rover is used sparingly. It is used as and when we need to use it and we aim to combine trips to ensure as little diesel as possible is used. This year we are introducing a rationing system based on mileage. We are aiming to keep mileage for the whole year to a maximum of 3000. That works out at 250 miles a month. We can carry forward any surplus mileage to following months but we won't carry over to another year. We will have to be even more focused on planning journeys and activities.

So, we start the year with a mileage of 159956. We have added 40 miles since then, all the result of moving soil and manure from the Whinnies to the small holding. I will aim to publish the figures monthly throughout the year.

Meanwhile, I have a bike I need to start using.
