The ones snugged in this time frame makes getting home a huge burden.<br /><br />Not a problem in the morning getting to the station and getting a parking spot, but I normally catch that first express train. The best thing is that I can leave my house anytime up to 6am and get there will plenty of time before the obnoxious women get to the platform and hog the whole thing.<br /><br />And it beats having to race out the door by 5.50am on Monday mornings because that one day is the one day the bus was perpetually early by 7 mins.<br /><br />Getting home is different. Normally catch the 4.10 or 4.40. I can get home in 15-20 mins (I can walk it in 25-30). But it has taken me over 45mins to do the same drive if I catch the 5 or 5.15 train. Not worth it.<br /><br />Another plus for driving (which I learnt this past summer) is that you have your vehicle at the station and are not reliant on the bus schedule. When there are delays (like last summer) you would have to wait until a bus came. No more. <br /><br />How I justified it was: My time is valuable. Is it worth driving and saving that time for me? Yes.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13230203164105678177noreply@blogger.com
