But, I think the main reason some people prefer to use spreadsheets, iPhone apps or websites to log their mileage, rather than paper, is their attitude to technology. Some people want to make use of technology wherever they can, others don't. I guess it is down to personal preference.

BolshieBastard is a sound chap. I once mentioned recording my mileage in a little notebook in the glove compartment once and got sneered at on here too. They laughed at Einstein when he invented the television, now he's a billionaire.

A book and a pencil cost about 50p and serve Bolshies purpose..... ie tot up his milage!
Obviously he could buy a top spec workstation, a big chunky server and an enterprise Oracle, he could pay someone to develop a Database in Oracle with entry screens, validation, cost lookups and all sorts........ and record his milage!
Whats wrong with this picture........... Bolshie is in profit and knows his milage.... you are thousands of pounds out of pocket and can only tot up your milage when sitting at your desk - unless you pay another developer to write you a webapp to access your Oracle database......
I am sure Bolshie uses a spread sheet or whatever.... but the principal still applies "Use what you have got to do what you need - don't pish money away needlessly"
