Whilst visiting London on Monday, I was sure I saw an electric delivery van belonging to Pret, the food company. If this was so, I am very impressed that they have taken this forward thinking stance. I believe that the future of modern transport is in finding green vehicles – not in making everyone take public transport or tax them to high heaven.
People will not give up their cars, modern life makes the ability to get from a to b quickly and independently essential. Many individuals will, I predict, be happy to go for electric (or green cars) when reliable cheap vehicles come on the market. This van would seem to be the first move towards that so well done Pret!
You have my coffee vote for your transporting innovation!

I feel even more justified buying hot chocolate there now.
I saw the electric van on the Internet. It is so lovely! Now we should make sure that the process carried out to obtain the electricity which propels it also respects the natural environment.
Yes indeed - I like wind farms myself. I don't know why the present government seem so against them. Wind farms placed in some remote part of Scotland or Wales - or even Dungeness in Kent would seem to be an excellent step towards reducing carbon emissions; rather than the nuclear reactors.
Thank you for the comment about the new bus, I will look out for.
Regarding Cameron I don't want the blog to get too political. Whilst I have political preferences and allegiances, to a degree, I prefer to create an environment where people are insulted or denegrated unnecessarily.
For that reason, I don't rule out politics, but I think it will be a fairly rare feature.
As regards the comments about Sunny Staines, I am investigating it, but as yet I have no explanation as to why that is. Talk to you soon
This was originally written by Oliver Pearce, however, to protect my anonymity I have deleted the offending section. Here is 99% of the original message in full.
Moto Fitzroi, have you seen the RV1 bus from Waterloo to Covent Garden, electric cells and steam emissions. Good show by the mayor I think.
How about a post on Cameron the Pretender, and why is it not possible to comment on the Staines Coffee article?
I saw one too while passing through London a few days ago!
