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."

Originally posted by Sporting View PostIn 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.

For once today, I dressed smartly for work, as I had an internal interview. So of course today would be the day that I poured coffee all over myself.

Funky. My brother lived in an apartment complex just across from Amersfoort station. Small world.
He moved to the suburbs a while ago, though. Even more cycling.

I live in Amersfoort, opposite the station. Like I said, the cycling is a perk.

Where's the new job, Aitch? I cant imagine anywhere 20k from Utreg without transport links. Then again, I voluntarily cycled Amersfoort to Nijkerk for 10 years.

That's like, what, 4 hours plus travelling every day, Aitch?

It’s 26k to my work (I only do both ways in the same day occasionally, more at this less demanding/ lighter evening time of year) and I always need a shower.

I aim to cycle everywhere to work and am lucky in not having a dress code.
