You know the Devon and Cornwall set, who rely so heavily on the tourist trade, enjoy a good whinge about how blocked their roads are especially at this time of year.

Here is where the blue dot is on the top map, just SW of London. Not quite the swanky brick gin palace on my location map, that's wishful thinking.

Well I'm home and no traffic affecting me Just remember:-
Amateurs built the Ark
Professionals built the titanic
Been in (cloudy) North Cornwall today; left at lunchtime and had to use some obscure back lanes to dodge the queues on my way back to Zummerset.Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana

Off subject DSL but you travelled up to Scotland to have your injectors replaced.. D3 HSE
Screw the Cornish; we have to put up with their traffic just passing through.
On a separate note ref their reliance on the tourist trade, it isn't much good for anyone if the traders trade is limited by the blockage of customers and the customers custom limited by the consequential convolutions on traders. Everyone's caught up the creek of crowded and crappy communications.
