Would It Be A Good Idea.

If you are traveling over the holiday and with all the strikes to pack a sleeping bag.

[Redhelen72]

Well the BF strike shouldn’t make that much difference if you are leaving the country but it when you return and enter a U.K. sovereignty that the delay will hit you and I can’t see you needing a sleeping bag

[rockyracoon]

I fancy that some people who were at Liverpool St station last night wished they'd a sleeping bag with them. We had to abandon the idea of getting the tube and get a cab home, to the tune of £62.

Sheeeet Rocky there is times I don’t miss living in London

[choux]

I guess it is difficult when there are constraints on baggage and weight. My car is full of all sorts of winter travelling essentials but I would not wish to travel afar in winter months. One just never knows.

A foil blanket would take up less room and, at least, keep one warm.

[nicebloke1]

I also have plenty of winter gear in my car choux. The guy who did my MOT last week thought i was a bit odd having a small camping stove, a cup, and a jar of Bovril in the boot, plus a large bottle of water packed away. ;0)

[choux]

lol, I just take a flask of coffee, a bar of chocolate and biscuits is a lighter option, small camping shovel, some cat lit and old hessian sacks, not forgetting tow rope, jump leads, warm blanket, change of shoes, gloves, thermal hat and torch.

What you got a lorry? :0)

[rockyracoon]

It was an utter joke, Red. We left the platform because it just wasn't safe. There were poor sods there with little kids. 15 minutes between tubes and they were heaving.

[choux]

Norra lorra room in my car but it pays to be prepared. I live in a rural area, nicebloke, and car problems tend to occur at the most inconvenient times and places :)

[Vagus]

You carry cat lit, choux? Errr, why??

[gingejbee]

^extra traction?

[Vagus]

Ha ha ha ha ha, I had visions of using it in some way if caught short! Never thought of traction…. :)

Sitting in back seat of daughters partners car...on way to London
..packed half my wardrobe...not sure about other emergency gear.
Does creedence clearwater blasting from sound system help?

[MissTerious2]

Where in London Pasta?

[Vagus]

All your posh frocks would indeed be good traction, pasta, if you got stuck in the snow ;)
Hope you have a lovely time with daughter in London, so many places to eat, so much to see, wish I was down there actually…

[barry1010]

No blerdy crackers anywhere because Jacobs workers are striking
Crumbs!

[choux]

Safe journey, pasta and have a lovely time.

[choux]

Vagus, yes, for traction, well done gingejbee! It was some I no longer need for cats so it is waste not want not here.
