NHS Polish locum commutes to work in Aberdeen - The Guardian 15th January 2008

Dr Piotr Robinski's second life begins every other Friday at 4am. Trying not to wake his wife or two children, the 40-year-old GP fumbles around for his car keys and drives four hours from his house in Poznan to Wroclaw airport in south-west Poland. There, he catches a cheap flight to Glasgow Prestwick, where he arrives two-and-a-half hours later ready to hop in a hire car to take him four hours north. By the time he hits Aberdeen he has been travelling for more than 13 hours, but there is no time for a nap: he has a shift to start. There is just time for a shower and a burger and then he is off, travelling all over Aberdeen to provide cover for the city's GPs.
