Ours is about a ten minute walk so I tend to walk unless we are carrying big tools, no shed so we can't leave them there. Otherwise I often stop off in the car on the way home from school or from going somewhere else as its just a case of taking another route home.
I've voted 'Yes sometimes' as it depends where I'm coming from...
We're still in the middle of self building our new house, and though our lottie is only five minutes walk from it, it is a good seven miles from the old one. If I've got nothing heavy to carry, I will park at the new house and walk round to the lottie. However, I reckon the damsons are just about ready for picking and it looks like a bumper harvest this year - I'll either take the car, or enlist my OH to help carry them home.
I have just given it a real pruning before it comes into leaf in the hope of getting some regeneration and the tree not having to work as hard getting water and nutrients higher up. If this doesn't work I'll replace it next year with something else.
