Shameless Eco Advert

Hey guys -- Trevor and Toni will know that I have waxed lyrical [if not operatically] about the car club I belong to. I'm not sure why I get so excited about it as really it's just a new way to hire a car. I guess I like it because it works pretty well, it has very hi-tech Oysteresque cards you wave at the windscreens of shiny new VW Golfs, those Golfs are located within half a mile or so where you all live [ok, a mile if you're in Camberwell] and if you are renting for a very short amount of time or distance it's really cost effective at £4.95/hour including first 30 miles -- additional miles at 19 pence and no charge for petrol. Their web interface, through which you book the cars, is good looking, easy to operate and sensibly written. AND, if two of you join and give my name as the refering Streetcar member ['how did you hear about Streetcar?'], I get 50 quid in theatre tokens, that is if you do this by 12 Nov. Tokens aside, have a look anyway at the site: www.streetcar.co.uk and post any questions you might have about it to the blog. Downsides? I suppose the initial committment you need to make is the £150 deposit they take off your card when you join but that is refundable if you leave and that is the only membership cost, as it were. Beep beep.
