I’m not going to pretend it’s easy to do or a frequent occurrence but that kind of thing is possible and an option that just doesn’t exist at the locos.
But is that really a perk? How often are you going to do that with a young family for example? Or even with a working partner?
I prefer to see my partner every day and every night of the week and then go on a relaxing mini-break on my four days off, to a destination of our own choosing…on staff travel of course.
