This is because Tim and Viné have chosen to build in non-sprawl areas in order to further maximize urban dwelling.
This encourages reduced automobile dependency and, according to Tim, “can cut a resident’s gasoline consumption by 72% annually.” He adds, “It’s almost impossible to build a green home in suburban sprawl, as the efficiency is counterbalanced by the expenditure of energy related to travel.”

 Tim Vine' review : Chortle : The UK Comedy Guide
A brilliantly silly act, Vine's quickfire puns are a guaranteed winner - and not necessarily because of their quality.
A large proportion of the gags are so painfully contrived that they would shame the average Victorian music hall turn, as Vine acknowledges, but these are mixed with enough genuinely inspired gems to make it work, and work well.
The pace is relentless, too, so that even the most hard-hearted comedy-goer will yield to the onslaught.
