OT: short drives.

Saw an mp claimed £00.09 for a 350 yard car journey yesterday....
.... What's the shortest legitimate car journey you have done? ?

I go out the exit of the drive, 20 yards along the road and come back in the entrance on a regular basis trying to hear if my next "cure" for creaking and squeaks has worked!

I've no idea what makes it legitimate though!

We did something similar last year for our work group when stayin at the hideaous Hinckley Island hotel... minibus to get us to the restaurant that was literally across the road. Some H&S advisor told us that we had to as it was a busy road, and dark, even though it was all of about 70 metres as the crow flies.
