| M42 last night | 30 Mar 2007 19:10 GMT | 31 |
The atm system was a bit screwed up. There were workmen at the side of the roads fiddling inside the cabinets, but I only saw one actually on the road. I was travelling back on the M42S, where the road was reduced from 50 to 40, and at one point, the signs read 20 X 20 40. The next ...

Ain't it great. Organised an appointment in Grays 09:00 Friday because I knew I'd be free and now another arrangement has been changed and I'm going to be in Colchester Friday morning. Normally I'd avoid the A12/M25 in the rush hour and can expect the 50 miles

| Distractions | 26 Mar 2007 00:06 GMT | 29 |
They have banned the use of hand held mobiles, satnavs have a good chance of being next, because they are deemed to be a distraction. But for me, the biggest distraction is 3 or 4 kids in a car being took to school. Can we ban kids please. Make em walk.
