15 minutes along the country lanes of South Cumbria - unless I get stuck behind a tractor or an old fart in a Vauxhall Meriva then its 20 minutes....

Leave between 06:10 and 06:13, and usually get to the office at about 06:56 and 06:58. On the M25 at junction 11 and off at 21A. Very rarely get stuck in the mornings, sometimes on the way home.
The 50mph average limit between the M40 and Chorley Wood pisses me off, but I just set the ACC to 54, take the feet off the pedals and point it in the right direction.

LOL!
8 minutes on a good day, 12 minutes if I get stuck behind slow-assed drivers. 6.30am-ish most mornings.

I am usually at work 65 minutes after I claw out of bed.
And no, I don't get stuck on the M25.

I have to be out of bed for an hour before I venture out.
Need to do lunchbox etc and have a couple cups of tea.

Depends but the worse can be coming into the office, its in hangar lane in london unless I leave around6am it can take couple of hours, so its leave at 6am takes about 50minutes and then leave around 4pm but then it still can take about two hours to do 45miles

I get out the house in 15 mins usually. Arive at work 8am so usually miss the shizzle of the rush hour. Glad i don't use my caR for work. Your poor guys whose cars don't even get warm on those short journeys. Hope you don't thrash em from cold.
