In reply to New POD:
I used to commute from Sherwood Forest area to London on Tuesday and then back on a Thursday eve.
Hated it, time away from other half journey was a nightmare and 4 hours plus to get there and home during rush hour.
Also folks say its so easy to do things in London, you just jump on the tube. Well its not easy at all, I worked very bottom of Hempstead Heath, ok digs and food easy to find but the tube or traveling around the London area was just sh*t.
Glad I'm no longer doing it.
