AndrewOW Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Your wish is my command. As for weather conditions, it's reasonably clear along the A27, but we're expecting some snow over night. The A23 is a little trickier, but depends on how quickly the gritters get out after the next event, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 There was a nasty smash on the M25 at the weekend I'd heard? I did M3 and M27 on Saturday and it was completely clear. A27 near Portsmouth is good but not sure about West Sussex side as it's a bit less motorway-ish over there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Basically, the M25 is bound to kidnap your family and beat you in the face with a stick even if it's sunny. Saying that, I did it yesterday and only had to stop twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewOW Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 40 seconds as well - what goes through your head that would make you think its a sensible idea They've seen it in the movies, so it must be an acceptable emergency exit procedure!

Charlotte Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I've got to head down South on Friday. I hope the general 'end of the world' weather has left by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are doing the opposite and heading up the country.... Since my folks' holiday was cancelled, we are invading their house, tree, dogs, pressies, kids and all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I've got to head down South on Friday. I hope the general 'end of the world' weather has left by then. Any chance of filling a bag with some 'southerness' while you're down there and releasing it up here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance of filling a bag with some 'southerness' while you're down there and releasing it up here? People can't understand me as it is I like vowels too much.

hogmaw Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Motorways and main roads are fine. It's your driveway and local roads that are the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
