I appreciate the comment, logistically it would be near impossible for me. I live in Dudley, my wife is a practice nurse, we have 2 kids (6 & 9) - I couldn't ask for all to move towards London (even if we could afford it). Yes a little bit of negativity (probably why I'm still reading/posting 15 years on
) . On the flip side, I'm fortunate to WFH and for those local, you might see me at Halfpenny Green sometime soon when I stop making excuses
Hopefully my comments will come as a lesson for those younger, make it happen before life catches up with you.
Good luck to you all, hopefully you can be flying me away on a trip in a few years
Give it some thought. Dudley is close to Skyborne, only an hour away. And once you start flying you could do as a huge number do and just do longer trips. If you’re working 3/4 day trips you’ll only do that drive 4 or 5 times a month. Which works out the same as a half hour commute each day to an office job. Once you’re on longhaul you’re laughing!
What I’m getting at is it’s entirely possible, many people at BA/Virgin etc live far further away, across plenty of different countries even, and make it work fine. Granted if you got Euroflyer you’d be a little stuck logistically but Heathrow would be along before too long. You could make it work.
