Re: Traffic nightmare
Busman is off to Manchester tonight with a coach trip - the organisers must be mad!
If it takes you that long Ian maybe you'll meet each other halfway!

Re: Traffic nightmare
heh, I really don't know what happened there. I must have been a very good boy.
Through an extensive knowledge of country roads, a lot of forward planning and some extremely good luck it took me 1 hour 30 mins!!! it was a very tortuous route I took but I seemed to be able to avoid the really bad bits. I think getting out an hour early made a massive difference though. I hate to think what time I'd got home if it had full on rush hour. |
