This week though, I've had to drive to and from Southampton yesterday and tomorrow so a nice 400miles round trip twice a week for the forseeable future!! Only fortunate thing with that is 45p per mile


If the forseeable future is >3 months that'll be 25p a mile then

our's is not done through our pay; they just pay us in cash when we get back and lump individual mileage as one I assume. I'll continue to get 45p a mile albeit it not being 100% declared but as far as I am concerned, its the company's perogative to do it correctly.

I lived there for 4 years; I quite like going back now and then but twice in 3 days is too much to be bothered with

10 miles down the a13 for me. takes 10-12 minutes from my house to work car park.

20 miles a day isn't too bad.

10 miles each way, both journeys are between 45 mins and an hour. London traffic for you.
