Had to take my wife to Kings College hospital London today, a trip we've done quite a few times over the years, last time 2 years ago.
Now in the past we've gone by train, the station is a few minutes walk from the hospital.
Given Covid I didn't fancy going on the train so instead drove, in my old VW Tiguan diesel, which I got 35mpg today.
Round trip 148 miles, cost in diesel £28
ULEZ charge £12.50
Parking via Just Park £5 - about a 7 minute walk to the hospital
Total cost of journey £45.50
Now the same trip on the train, which we would of had to of left at the same time, and probably got back later would of cost £80 for the two of us!!!
