MY travel expence's 40pound a day

More to the point, why not get a bike? A £10 taxi journey can't be far, and the £400 you'll save in the first month will more than pay for a decent commuter bike plus associated locks and stuff. After that it's quids in, plus you'll be much fitter to boot. Everyone's a winner.

Lots of presumptions.

Some offices don't have showers.

Some people actually get sweaty and smell when they have been cycling. (I've had to suffer smelly colleagues when the showers haven't been working.)

Some people actually get sweaty and smell when they have been cycling.

Not as much as people who have been on the Tube. And those people don't even consider needing a shower when they get to the office.

I did once work at a place which had no shower facilities, but I used to take a flannel and have a quick strip wash in one of the more remote loos in the building, plus a bit of a deodorant spray after. No problem.

And a ten quid taxi fare is probably, what, four miles? No sweat, as they say.
