    M25

    I hate you.

    That is all.
    Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

      Ten miles? M25? Ten miles of stationary traffic on the M25 isn't a jam; it's called "a queue for an exit", "a queue for the bridge" or "normal".

      A traffic jam on the M25 starts at about 35 miles.

      I have heard of jams over 100 miles long a few times and on one glorious Friday evening: it joined up. Then we left the South East so I presume a completely static M25 it is now a common occurence.

        No, I'm a good boy. My driving's bad enough.

        Posted from elderly lappy in favourite chair.

        Must find route from Farnborough to Rickmansworth avoiding M25 and Sluff.

        I don't live in Ricky mind, it's just J17 is where the infernal roadworks end and I can scoot round to the M1.

        Any ideas peeps?

            Before negotiating the M25? That would explain some of the driving...

              Go the other way: north west up through the Midlands, through Wales to Angelsey. Ferry to Ireland, then find some cargo ship to take you and your car to New York. Drive west across America, then head North up to Alaska. Wait until mid winter and drive across the Bearing Strait, then it's a quick trip across Siberia, Russia, Poland, Germany, France, through the Channel Tunnel, up the M20 and then ..

              Bugger, you're back on the M25. Okay forget that.
              Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

                  I thought you were attempting to overcome that little issue?

                    Not really, RCs drinking habits are none of my concern.

                    I however am under control.
