Re: London is great
Here, in Toronto, I used to arrive at the office at about 7:15. Most of my colleagues arrived between 7 and 7:15. I moved house and the traffic pattern made it convenient for me to arrive just before 7, the others now arrive between 6:30 and 6:45. It's work lunacy, not specifically London lunacy.

I put on my Flip flop pink bunny Slippers, commute to my kitchen,get a coffee, then head to my office on my deck overlooking acres of Apple Orchards, grab my lap top and check all my email.
i normally nap for about 1/2 hour around noon.

Drive 5 minutes to downtown Guelph.
Skip over to office (not literally) by 8:15am and start dealing with the mundane at 8:30am. Take 30 mins for lunch and then oot the door at exactly 4pm. Back home for 4.10pm.
In September we go back to finishing at 4:30pm but get an hour for lunch.

I usually worked from 7.00a.m to gone 6.30 p.m. would arrive on a late flight after being away all week, would go to the Office, then go home.
The further up the ladder, the closer to the door, so you set an example.
