    It could be worse - you might have the misfortune of actually living there! Luckily I'm just outside but still too close for comfort.

    I pass the outskirts of Swindon when I cut across the country via Aylesbury and Oxford, and if I'm not very careful or if there is a diversion I manage to get lost in the maze of roads.

    What was it that poet said? "there's no there there"

    On the flip side, you can enjoy the entire hour driving away each night.

    started a topic Boom

    Boom

    Landed a 6 month contract, less than 10 mins cycle from my house. No more 1+ hour Swindon commute! Hurrah!

    I will actually get my life back.

    Not sure how to feel about 6 months though as I have always preferred very short contracts so I can have a break in the middle. I guess it'll fill the warchest for some summer shenanigans next year though

Working...
