How to resolve this ??
My girlfriend and I currently live in Woking.
She works in Bracknell (30 minute drive). If I were to get a job in
Chelmsford - where is a good place to live for a reasonable commute for
both of us ?
(the middle is about central London - bit pricey).
Thanks.
Stratford. Easier for the Chelmsford, but Jubilee and Waterloo for the
Bracknell.
Have you seen how long the train takes from Waterloo to Bracknell - it's
about an hour, plus quite a long time on the tube.
Considering the M25 southern section runs reasonably well west-east
(clockwise) in the morning to Dartford (much better than the other
direction), then staying in Woking would probably be best. OK, your
commute is about an hour and a half. Maybe you could move round a bit to
Reigate to even it out.
Better still - one of you change jobs. As things stand, one or even both
of you will be driven mad by the commute.
They should just split up, tbh.
