lol yeah! I would never commute from Barcelona like this guy, but just puts into perspective how fast can you be very far.

I once had to visit a customer a Friday and a Monday (so there was no big point on staying the whole weekend in a hotel), having to drive each day 5 hours each direction. That was without leaving the UK. Apparently this guy makes it quicker from Barcelona to Bracknell (not even London, which would take less time IMHO).

Adding some important things:

- Stock

- Up to 10% pension match

- I work from home most of the time (got a little kid, so I can enjoy more time around him)

"Close" is a relative term.

Is it closer to London a little Scottish town, far from any airport or major communications hub, than Paris or Barcelona?
