Time and money

It's funny how you think of things sometimes after the opportunity to put them into practice has passed. I dropped the car over to the mechanic this morning and took a taxi home since it's too far to walk and there's no direct bus route. What I hadn't considered is that there are two bus routes that almost meet that I could have used instead - but they would have taken at least half an hour longer - connections permitting. Which led to the time and money equation - although this is just one way of looking at it. If you have more time to get from A to B, then you can do it more cheaply than if you need to B in a hurry.
