    have a good think before going anywhere, a 5 minute drive out could turn into a 4 hour drive home.. people here are ditching cars and walking..

    Just got in. The traffic wasn't too bad either way from here, just a broken lorry going home. Only 2 of the local 5's made it but we still had fun.
    It was cool to have a good natter, and a burger and hot chocolates :ho:

    But what was with the gritter trucks backing up to spray all the cars

    I'm gutted i missed this, we sat in massive traffic trying to get on the M1 at Junction 12.....We were not moving and neither was the M1, We had a slight moment where we mounted a kerb and smashed my brothers mint bumber and dented a wheel.(decided to call it quits..)

    Cant wait for this white **** to go away, give us dry roads back.

    I'll make it to the ace soon.

    Getting the fibreglass out along with the ally welder.....

    Nice to see many 5s make the effort unlike myself. Was a good evening though and nice to see members coming from afar despite the weather.
