I have about the same commute as you.

I work in the centre of London and travel about an hour each way.

In the mornings I first get an overground train, then I change onto an underground train. I live at the end of the line, so in the mornings an empty train pulls up and I can pretty much choose where I want to sit. That train is About 40 minutes and then I change onto the underground. That is also usually empty ish and I get a seat. Another 10 minutes and I am at work.

You soon get used to a commute don't you?
