Swindon = Fail

TMP · 07-26-2010, 04:35 PM

So it was raining hard on M6 = traffic slow

Wippers started squeaking making horrible rubbing sound = getting more irritated.

Then hit longer then usually queue to get on M5. wipers doing my noodle in by now =

Stop for coffee, clean wipers = chilled again

Then on M5, some numptie holiday makers (who only venture out onto mway once a year) crashed and caused me to loose another half an hour and detour around M42 - Redditch - worcestor = iDrive bloody ace

Swindon = 1 hour late for meeting

Home = beer downed and rant over

Surely a man in your position could have arranged a video-conference

. Think of the depreciation on the Beemer with all those miles

Read the above and couldn't help but think that I'd got all of your day's Twitter updates in one convenient post...

Unfortunatley, these needed to be face to face....

It was only 320 miles, and tbh Roger I would rather use my car than save 5p come trade-in (well that's what the salesman always tells me

. Actually It's surprising how little 10k miles actually affects the value
