There's a one-hour train ride between the cycling and the work. The cycling is a perk.

In the small town where one of my sisters lives there must be at least 50 be-suited blokes on the branch railway platform at 6.30 waiting to catch the train - with a change - into London. 70 minute journey plus what comes before and after. Not sure that I'd be able to handle this for a long time.

Originally posted by Sporting View PostIt's an okay town with still some independent stores left and a twice-weekly market. Nice walks along the River Stour. Pubs are humdrum but there's decent local football and cricket. Thomas Gainsborough was born there,
Aren't pubs supposed to be humdrum? One goes there to talk to friends, etc. I've noticed that in films and TV from the UK. At least in older movies/shows, the pubs never seem to have pop music or TVs constantly blaring in the background or a lot of random tat on the walls to give it "character."
