        I'm beginning to despair, got contacted about another gig, supposedly London and Croydon based, another agency contacted me and they maintain the role is based in Croydon, contacted main agency and said not so sure about this can they confirm.

        Checked how long the commute would take to Croydon and it's 2 hours by train with 2 changes so add another 3 quarters of an hour for drive to station, general faff and for faffing with tube changes.

        London takes me nearly 2 hours door to door on a daily basis and I have got used to that.

        Of the last 6 or so interviews, the majority have been canned, resourced internally or seemingly completely different spec to what I was pitched in the first instance and I think I missed out on 1 to someone with more experience.

          I worked in Croydon and it took nearly an hour from here.

            I suspect the role is primarily based there.

            According to the pimp it takes 15 mins from London Bridge.

            But you still have to get the tube to London bridge or Victoria from St Pancras both lines are a mare from kings cross especially first thing in the morning.

              If you are thinking about it go to Victoria. There are a lot more trains.

                I think the commute into London is enough without adding summat else onto it.

                When the pimp comes back to me, I'll probably tell him no.

                    Then again, it took about 5 minutes on the interweb thingie to find the source of one or two others.
