Hand me this receipt in a bar in Paris after I order four bottles of beer:
Next time I’ll order wine.

Car Sharing coming to Cork
Posted on December 13, 2007, by Conor O'Neill, under Cork, Motor Cars.
Michael Newham just left a comment on my post about car-sharing. It looks like this is going to happen next year. It’s a great idea.
Our company ‘Mendes - GoCar’ will be providing the car-sharing service in Cork City Centre. We hope to have it operational by May the 1st 2008.
Please see the Wikipedia article for a good overview of what Car-Sharing is about.
All our ‘GoCars’ will have dedicated parking spaces ‘GoBases’ near high residential and business nodes of population.
Research has shown that in a successful car-sharing business each car added to a car sharing fleet replaces 8 to 12 private vehicles; thus reducing Co2 emmissions and congestion.
Another benefit to joining a car-sharing service is the increased use of public transport as well as walking and cycling.
We hope to have our website www.gocar.ie live by mid January. It will just be a brochure based site to begin with where ye can leave contact details to find out about membership and so forth.
