Normally when I'm in at 5 am it's great. However coming home during the school run is a very different manner.

Sometimes it's just a walk downstairs to set up the laptop

They're my favourite days.

10 minute walk, 15 minute bus.

Much better than being sat on a train for hours like my previous commute.

Today it's a 20 minute train journey followed by 5 minutes on a bus. More often it's 15 miles and an hour on the bike. Less often it's a 14 mile/2 hour run

12 to 15 minutes by car or

An hours walk or

An hour and 15 minutes on a bus

No buses across town so have to go into city centre and back out again

Integrated public transport. Not.

I just walk 20 minutes, most of which is through a lovely park.

My previous job was over an hour on the train then a mile walk in each direction. It was worth it cuz the job was ace. I'd go back in a second.

15 minute pleasant drive through winding country lanes. Bit of a chore sometimes as quite repetitive.

Longer than normal as the main route between Heels HQ and the daily grind is being dug up and the diversion is different every day, it's like living in the Labyrinth (FYI, I am not fighting my way to the goblin city).

Two buses and somewhat of a delay between each if Mr is working away from home, otherwise a ten minute drive. Soon to be moving a forty minute tram and bus ride away .... difficult with working a twelve hour day....

10 min drive if school childen are off. 20 mins if school children in school. Coming home around 20mins. Hate when school children at school, they just stop in the worst places possible. Even tho there is a large free sainsburys car park right next to it, and even dedicated school drop off right next to this(always empty).

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum

If I'm working in York its a 35 min walk each way. If I'm working in London its 2 and a half hours, including a lovely walk through Pimlico. If I'm working from home its about 30 secs from my bedroom to my desk.

Hugely envious. At best mine is 50 mins on a fast but over-crowded Tube. At worst it's a 2 hour marathon on same Tube, with speed reduced to a crawl and so packed that you have to time your breathing to breath out when the person pressed up against you breathes in. Hell.

Finish at 5, walk 10 minutes to the coach station. Wait till 6pm for the half past 5 coach, a 45 minute drive if no traffic. Then get on the mountain bike and 15 minutes later I am home.

I wish I had wine given to me on my commute home!

But I would spill it on the bike

25 mins cycling - and down hill on the way home so around 15 mins
