Who's Brilliant At Journey Planning??

[Smowball]

To get to our house we are renovating we have to go after Mr Smows finished work on a Friday. If he comes home to meet me and to get car then he is coming home an hour in one direction, to then leave and drive at least 4 hours in the other direction. So he's been driving into London with the car at 7am , then I get train in to meet him in afternoon and we start journey from London, but you can imagine the traffic is horrendous and though saving miles it doesn't save time. So my only other idea was if he somehow gets a train from London to..... whilst I also leave home in car to.... and meet him then carry on the journey, thus avoiding driving in London.
So would any clever soul be able to spot a way of doing this that might work if I give starting and ending points ?? X
