You presumably used the train because despite the conditions it was a
better choice overall than driving.


No we don't. I don't think my salary would stretch to living in Drury
Lane or anywhere near it...


You'd be surprised how many 'cheap' properties there are very close to
even Drury Lane. Certainly within that 3 mile bike ride you mentioned
earlier. But of course you may not choose to live in them.

So no different from those who have say an average house or flat in London
'worth' say 400 grand and decide they'd rather have a much larger one
elsewhere.
