Far flung?  27 mins from Reading to Paddington - that's quicker than
many normal commutes within London.  Ok, granted we don't know how
close the job is to the station, and we have to allow for time to get
to Paddington, but I know lots of people living in London and working
in London who have at least an hour's commute.

Lots.  There are heaps of successful companies, employing very highly
skilled and talented people in Reading, Guildford, Woking,
Basingstoke.  Sometimes the pay is attractive too.
