250 miles. Either a 7 hour boat journey or 50 minute flight!

I live about 100 miles from my firm uni and 90 from my insurance, both are just under a two hour drive, which is quite reasonable. I'll hopefully have my motorbike by the time I go to uni meaning I won't have to rely on the three hour train journey to get home.

30 mins in a car but it was somewhere I'd never really been before so it felt quite far away. I thought I was brave haha imagine if I'd moved across the country!

About 150 miles I think and takes about 3 and a half to 4 hours to drive there. Takes about 4 hours on the train and then a 20 minute car journey but I only have to change trains once so thats not too bad.

101 miles.

It's around 40 or 50 miles- takes an hour or so to get there in the car.

About a 4hr drive, but that can depend on how busy the Dartford crossing is, had to sit on that stupid bridge for like 2 hours in the middle of a summers day once, literally ****ing torturous.

Starting in September - google maps tells me the distance is 516miles, took me about 12 hours on various public transports, takes me longer than it takes most international students to get there :L

London > Leicester. I think it's somewhere between 90-100 miles.
2 hour drive by car, It's normally around 1 - 1:30 hour by train so overall it's not a bad journey.
