Only an hour and twenty. I know, it still sounds like a long time, but that is purely down to distance, no silly stop-starting or sitting in crawling traffic. But when I got into the office, feeling pleased with myself, one of the other blokes here piped up with "Oh, that was a good journey wasn't it, don't worry, it won't last, that was a fluke". Great. So when the school start up again apparently I can look forward to an extra 30 - 45 minutes on my journey. Hellfire and biscuits.
So it's been a week now since I moved away. Am I settled yet? Not really. Partly because the house is still a bit of a tip, and partly because I haven't really got into a routine yet. But we'll get there.

The jury is still out on northern monkey.
So what are the golf courses up there like then??
steven
No news on golf courses yet - however, I have the day off Friday and will be trying one then. Not sure which one yet, but a full report will be forthcoming.
Having done 7 years of 2 hours driving per (work) day, I know how you feel.
Was there not a chance of you working from an office nearer Stockport?
Russ - there is, but I still have to come here at least twice a week at the moment. However, being very quiet on the project front at the moment, I'm hoping to convince my boss that I don't actually have to come here next week!
I hope your Boss will be understanding...
You never know he might say to you work from Manc land all the time...
How are all the Northern Monkeys!
