What do people do to pass the time in the car ?
Been driving from Nottingham to Barclays in Knutsford (you went past it the other day on your bike ride Tom). Bout an hour and 40 each way (and 30 quid a day).
I've done a course of beginners spanish whilst I've been workin' there. Not even bothered wanging some spanish on the ipod. I'm a lazy lazy waster and genuinely loathe myself for the waste of life whilst at the same time don't get why I don't do anything about it.
Anyway, radio 5, radio 3, classicfm and occasional radio 4. I figure it's a better use of my time to see if the texts I write at 110mph will get read out on the radio....

Brighouse to York is what... 40-45 mins? That's not that bad, is it? I know somebody who goes from near Romsey to central London every day, now that is a commute. :\
Between an hour and an hour and a half so far. Not had any roadworks or accidents to get past so far though
When I was at Triumph it was 45 mins there and 45 back every day, which is the longest commute I've had.
It was a pain in the arse.
All I did to pass the time was me Ipod on my cars stereo and Radio4.
The great dilemma I had was that using the car was horribly expensive on fuel, and using my bike just added stacks of miles to it.
I just got another job instead

I just don't understand why anyone would want to commute anywhere. What's the point in working when, by the time you get home you are too knackered to do anything and are already looking at the clock because you know you have to be up early to get back to work the next day.
no thanks.
It's not a case of want, it's a case of must.
