Jeeeeesus Christ, I got a sore arse (no, not 'because of that ...) ... usually takes me 50-55 mins to drive home from Warwick to Leics after work ... today took me 2.5 hours!

An open-top rubbish trailer tipped over on the Tollbar (TGI) roundabout, and so not only caused generally carnage, but spilt ***** everywhere.

And in the Mini ... sore legs, and water temp was sat at around 110-120! Lucky I had a last-minute slash before I left for work Posted Image

I did drive through Cov, but not near there.
I have to say it, but the roads are actually C**p in Cov. Bone shaking stuff! The country lanes through Stoneleigh are in better condition :)

yeah, i work in the binly area of cov and coming onto that RB to go down the A46 i noticed it :) had to go on a huge detour thru binley woods when i was already in thr red of my fuel gauge, did have a map or cr*pnav so i was guessing where to go. when i got to the big RB near cov' airport i noticed it was qued all down the a46 opposite direction all down the a45 as far as my eyes could see (over top of a bridge and most definatly beyond) and for at least 1/2 a mile down the a46 towards warwick many miles of ques then, glad i was goin over
looked like a truck which holds quarry material turned, flipped over
