I know how you feel mate. I had the chocolate off my turkish delight melt in the wrapper in my bag today. What a mess when eating it. Cr@p day
Wondering if any forum members are caught up in the 30 mile jam on the M5 today - closure of Avonmouth bridge to North-bound traffic - that's bound to make it a sh!t start to the weekend. Seems astonishing that the police & HA didn't sort a way of clearing those stuck for 6+ hours, either with the slip road or with the use of a lane of the South bound section.Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana

John with this BBQ summer surprised you are not keeping the chocie bars in the cool box!! Not got one??? Neither did I until I knicked the one from SWMBO's car, along with her xenons!!!
PS Missed the chaos on the M5 & M25, but had my share of it on the M6 between J23 & J15!!!

Apparently some muppet chose today to try and jump off it How inconsiderate Global Warming.... I'm luvvin it
Surely a quick look up and down the length of the bridge, a quick look over the rails and down to the water - No one in sight, Yeah he /she/they jumped.... Job Done. Open the road FORECAST FOR TONIGHT: things have happened out there!!!

Mick, sorry to hear about the caravan. If its any help there is a company in Bradford, called Then Exhaust Ejector Co.
Weird name I know, but they make caravan windows to order. They got me out of a spot a few years ago when someone bricked all the front windows on our old Fleetwood. Manufacturer was quoting months for delivery, I took the remains of the windows to EE.Co. and they made them up in a day. Paid cash and it was very reasonable.
Hope they are still around.
As for my day, it was great. Met Mr & Mrs DiscoDunc this morning, as they arrived at the North Ledaig Caravan site as we were leaving. Lovely drive home with very few hold ups.
