With a few exceptions, I've been commuting on LON-AMS (2 days per week in AMS) every week for the past several years. I don't find it in the slightest stressful - I have adapted my travel plans as varying factors have changed, and, through time, managed to find the easiest way to get from one end to the other in maximum comfort.

My latest change comes as bmi has twatwaffled itself and I've been looking for a new carrier. At the same time, I've started cycling again - London is now full of bikes. It started off with the bombs in July, but now it's got to a critical mass where enough people are cycling to encourage more to do so, for its own sake. So, City Airport is now reachable by bike (45 minutes) and I've found a source of cheap ex-LCY tickets. So, LCY-AMS weekly it shall be!

Being in Amsterdam is fun, too - it's a city with plenty to do (particularly outside the main tourist drag), I've got to the point where I understand plenty Dutch (my speaking it is altogether shakier), and, as well as being joined by colleagues, I have several friends over there, both through the customer, and for other reasons.
