Anyone noticed how bad the traffics suddenly got?

It took me 50 minutes yesterday to get from the third floor to the second floor of Luton Arndale carpark.

Today all the roads are jam packed, cant even go out because you get stuck in traffic.

Oh well.....useless info for ya all.

they could use the extra money they get from gatso's to turn the camera's into projectors and show movies or football/rugby matchs during massive jams on the m25

I hope Junction 8 for Hemel's open, working Christmas day nights :lol: if that makes sense. Nice open Road :D

BTW If a digi dash shows 136mph how accurate woulds that be, about 130mph?

Claire/solo you can go to the roof, and drive across to the other car park. Never any queues to get out of there

there was, and that queue was not moving at all, if we'd stayed in that queue we'd of been about 3 hours rather than 3 :o

so...that would be the last minute mental heads buying their last minute pressies and food and that!

I however (since moving) - avoid all traffic and have a MASSVIE 24 hour tesco 10 minutes from my house!

However ( :o ) they had to close this on Christmas Eve due to health and safety reasons (maximum people in store) - they were letting one trolley in at a time!

:o

I highly recommend Tesco.com - internet shopping - they deliver which saves on petrol, its cheaper cos its the internet, theres no annoying people and grannies with trolleys they just stand in the middle of the ailes looking completely lost (feckin dementia kicking in) AND NO MASSIVE QUEUES and no getting out of car parks.

They also deliver like the next day!

:wink:

and no I dont work for them - just think its brill - I hate town now!

i buy almost everything off the net. More convenient, and works out cheapet most of the time too.

The only exception is clothes, as i like to try things on, and erm, feel the quality of the fabric. lol
