Could reading bring happiness on your bus journey?

Delayed or cancelled trains, crowded buses and roadworks can add to the problem and make the journey seem even longer.

But are there ways to make the daily commute less stressful or possibly even enjoyable?

Do you remain calm when stuck in a traffic jam?

Do you have a spring in your step when getting off the tube?

If you find happiness in your journey rather than hassle, then why not share your commuting tips with your felllow travellers, just like Anna Packman from Littlehampton:

I used to commute from my home in Littlehampton to Belsize Park, which on a good day was a six-hour round trip. One weekend my niece showed me how to make "scoubidous" - plastic strings in different colours which are knotted to make things like keyrings and pens.

I was quickly hooked and soon I carried a toolkit in my bag of strings, scissors, pen refills and beads. Soon all of my work colleagues had a pen and a keyring. Often my hobby would attract curiosity and was a good conversation starter. Often I would give the finished product to a stranger which, after their initial surprise, they were really pleased with.
