Default Oxford to London commute - ridiculous??

I currently live in NW London and have a job offer in Oxford. The job
would be better and I'm thinking I'd prefer the lifestyle over there. I
don't think I could hack the commute out to Oxford everyday, as it's not
like I live near Paddington anyway.


If you currently live within easy reach of Hillingdon, there are VERY
frequent coach services between there and the centre of Oxford, run by the
Oxford Tube and the Oxford Espress. Takes about an hour, and much cheaper
than the train via Paddington.


Embarrassed to say I overlooked this option in my reply - I think I'd sort
of taken it that the OP had half-settled on the move to Oxford so I only
really considered the journey in the other direction.
