Very nice. I love your bike, too! May I ask - what sort of IGH/shifter set-up you are using? Your bike is similar to a build that I have in mind.

It's a Sturmey Archer 5speed with a bar-end shifter.

That looks like a fun commute. I like how clean and tidy your handlebar set up is. I feel the need to tidy up the lights, bell, and computer on mine now.
