I mean that is absolutely fantastic.

It's all about journey times rather than distances. I worked at one place in Dunstable, Beds a while back and lived just ~3 miles away, but because it was the other side of Luton it used to take me, on average, about 45 mins to get to work. Crazy.

I think in this country we are probably a bit more obsessed with commute times than in some larger countries - I worked in Chicago briefly in the mid 90s and there if you had a 1.5 hr commute it was considered local! Definitely in Norfolk I reckon the distances make it look worse than it is.
