Can't remember where you are from but if you have to go over the Severn bridge and do the junction near Bristol for M5? there is a camera right on it, basterds ain't they, It was a lovely corner/junction.

Nah Stu will be coming from the opposite direction Robb.

They are working on the Avonmouth bridge so nowt new there.

4 Hours are you sure, St Column is a good 2 and half hours from my place and Cambridge is more than 90 minutes from here!!!

Was i supposed to be having anything ready for you to collect.
