I used to commute by car from Norwich to Thetford every day for 4 years

This was before the bit after Attleborough was duelled.

It was alright in the mornings, bang an album on and straight on the A11 from my Cambridge St abode. Whip there in 40 mins.

The way home, in the winter especially, was a f**king wounder as I was tired and hungry and if there was a crash somewhere you ended up being diverted around Watton or some other tortuous route.

In summary; if you're not driving then you can occupy yourself. However, all modes of transport are vunerable to delays and breakdowns, and the frequency of that s**t will be the clincher.

Good luck.
