It’s a funny old time to be a commuter right now — especially one who relies on trains to get from A to B. On the one hand, the strikes have slowed down. It’s early days, but I’m cautiously optimistic — if only because I cannot bear to catch a bus to Gatwick again. That two-hour journey via Heathrow still crops up in my nightmares from time to time.
