The big getaway... for those not already stuck in it that is

[Spin_bowler]

For any of you in the North West London or SW Herts area be warned the M1 is shut going southbound and is causing chaos all over. It took me two hours to go from J22 M25 to Redbourn and back. You may as well stay in the office instead of sneaking out early like I did.

It was predicted to be rubbish and it is, pretty safe bet that one!

I know, the traffic's been a complete nightmare in general recently but today was a particular treat, it took me almost an hour and a half between Bristol and Bath! Normally 1/2hr at most, it's only about 10 miles...

I know just what you mean, I've already had eleven cars pass my house today and it's only 17.25hrs.

Ooooh was so awful - took me 45 mins to get home instead of the usual 30 and that included a stop at the local car wash

There was no difference for me at all - left at 2.40 and home for 3.25

Sypmathies to those caught up in the mass exodus. Safe journeys to all travelling over the holiday period.

LOL!!

Smug gits! I hate this rush hour lark. Come back shifts, all is forgiven. Never mind, I expect the next bright idea will be a congestion charge for Bristol- No doubt I'll be comfortably within its borders. D'oh!

I walk to work,

but I finished yesterday so no traffic for me. Takes me 15 mins even when all the lights on red

 

[fabes]

just took a call from a less than liked relative who was bored

he's still stuck on the M25 (apparently its shut!)

2 hours !

LMHO!! - I know, I know, not funny...... actually its very funny

Couldn't happen to a .... (even wifey smirking - you'd have to know the merchant banker - no really, he is., works in the city an' all!)

Roads to the SW will be empty tomorrow (famous last words!)
