For the past 4 weeks I have been splitting my time between mornings in the office and afternoons at home - I have been provided with a laptop which has our VPN installed so I can access all my files and e-mail from home, over my wireless home network (I pay a fixed price for our Home broadband anyway).

This was a short term arrangement, but I get so much more done at home.  It has worked well because one boss has been in the States so I had afternoons freeish and then did some work with him in the evening - so the flexibility works both ways.  My top tip for disciplining yourself to do the work even if you are at home - dress in your office clothes so you feel the part.

I am hoping that I might be able to make this a longer term arrangement, since it seems to suit all of us.
