Another seasonal rant . . .

Hi all, good Xmas all round ?

Jes got back from our last trip . . . .

& my rant is, after driving 5,000k with virtually no traffic on the roads thru Spain & France - why is it that as soon as you're back in the UK & you hit the M25 it all grinds to a halt ?
Getting past Bluewater & Lakeside was a nightmare !!Hasn't everyone spent enough already over the Xmas time ?

we're a smaller country.

I went on a course once about financial regulation and the course tutor was a lady from the carribean.

We had regular breaks for tea and coffee on a serve yourself basis and at one point she remarked about how us brits just love to queue.

She said a case in point was when we went for tea and coffee we'd form one long polite queue which moved slowly as everyone got what they wanted and why didn't we form diferent smaller queues for each thing.

Tea and coffee breaks were a lot different after that.

Funny when you think about things sometimes :)

I totally agree with all of your comments - as for us being a smaller country, yes we are - and I think that's compounded by the fact that we probably have more vehicles per household !!
