The "how Many Hours Is It Going To Take Me To Get Home From Work Tonight" Thread!

See that a wagon has gone over on M6 and another on the Barton Bridge (M60). Pretty sure it'll be traffic chaos this evening.

Thelwall is now clear but Barton isn't, another wagon has gone over at around junction 19 on the M6, oh and the A49 through warrington is shut because of a fallen tree

FFS.  Not looking good.  According to AA, From Heaton Park all the way to the M61 turn off looks shit.

 

Boooooo.

should have left early like myself. just heard on sky,bbc,cnn,reuters and towerfm that the entire motorway network in lancs and greater manchester has been shut. Sally Army and Army and Navy stores are issuing free sleeping bags for those caught up in it

I'm attempting Oldham to home now

If it's utter wank from Simister let me know.  Three rings will do.  Good man.

Yes, I came off at 17 as it looked like it was building up. Try whiefield, ringley, kearsley. Clear atm.

Think I'll go drive through Prestwich, Whitefield, Radcliffe and drop into Bolton that way.

The 60 is backed up to between Robin Hood (16) and Prestwich (17)

How is Mcr to Bowton?

M61 is fine, M60 is rammed from J8 (Carrington) all the way to the 61.

daughter is going the trafford center at 6.30 with the guides

 

is it worth me leting her out the cellar

Fucked it off early today, on an 18 storey in manny with the top section still wide open, crane wouldn't lift our steels and as its only a ladder to get up the final 4 floor I decided it was not a good day for dropping plumb lines

Tyne has burst its banks so looks like I'm swimming home :help:  

The M6 is just at a standstill. Madness

 

We had an entire building site close today because all the solar panels blew off the roof. Onto a playground ful of kids.

How's the fog?

Been calling old dears in Norfolk who are insured with us today checking they are ok and if they are in the affected area of tidal surge.

Stuck in work until 5.45pm. Reckon its going to be shite getting home. Can go 2 ways.... M62 from Warrington (but guessing car park). Or via Warburton Toll bridge - however I join the A57 at the same junction as M6 North & South and from what I'm hearing both of them have tailbacks on.... which will no doubt back up to the A57 junction... and then everyone will be trying the A-road via Carrington - which struggles with half a dozen cars never mind the entire north west... I'm waffling now as I'm fucked off with sitting in traffic.

Reckon I'm going to try for an extra large dump now before setting off.

Hour and half from Queensferry bottom of 56 near 69 and a little hold up near the Middleton junction of the 60 only places with a slight hold up

blow away in the wind

What additional products were you trying to sell them?

I think it's all his all his

What additional products were you trying to sell them?

PPI, fixed income bonds we won't honour and crystal meth

Not done too bad. 3 hours to Brum this morn (set off at 5:45) and 2:45 home (set off at 3pm)

Stuck in Manchester, not moving. Can I go home now please?

You put the shits up me because I thought the M60 backing up would balls up the A56, so I did one at 4. 

 

Hardly a car on the road, home in record time
