Drive up for the first duty and go home after the last. Find some cheap place to bunk up, the cost is offset by fuel savings. Driving these days is a nightmare. I did 97 miles from home to LGW for a number of years and found it sustainable staying up there but not a great deal of fun. Winter with more long haul in the mix and less flying was always a relief with more time at home but forecasts of snow and ice on the roads were always a concern. I would never recommend a long commute but sometimes it has to be done.
