And how long does that take you each day?
Yes, you do have to go to where the work is, that's why I'm at Heinz 20odd miles away, I feel like it's only a local journey now you've told me how far you travel.

You must be putting about 5 gallon of fuel in your car each day. £25 a day just to get to work!  :o  :o

Coming back down the hill towards jct 21/20 when you have HGV's inches from your back end cos they're free wheeling ......  :-?  :-?  :-? Not a nice place to be!  ;)  :y

That'll be 'Death Valley' on the M60 (formerly M62) between Jct 17 Whitefield & jct 15 where the M61 joins. If you listen to Sally traffic on Radio 2 there's an accident or 2 most weeks somewhere round there. It's usually 4 lanes of stationary traffic at 'rush hour'  :-?  :y
