Default How long was your commute this morning?

Well, 6 inches of snow in Norwich and it took me 1hr 20 mins to do my usual 11 mile/15 minute commute - daft thing is that 40 minutes of that was the last 2 miles!

3 hours and 8 minutes... 183 mile commute.

Not to bad as the snow is pretty bad where I live.
