Ah, sorry.

Mind you, I must concede that commuting is a bit of a waste of one's life.

I remember a chap in the news a few years ago who commuted by car every day from Pontefract to Reading. And he sounded cheerful on the radio.

I was looking at this book on Amazon this weekend - the guy wrote it to win an argument. His argument was that people sleeping on the train were wasting their time, and to prove it, he wrote a book just during his daily commute.

The general advice seemed to be that he would have been better off sleeping instead. I didn't waste my 77p to buy it to find out, though.
