so,how long did it take you

Thanks to the exemplary train service a couple of hours longer than expected.

The footy specials were royally fucked up after the match so walked to Victoria, got the 20-28 to Leeds which was ram-jammed full to a ridiculous extent - more than three coaches of passengers crammed into two, and Napoleon Driver decided that he needed to re-run Waterloo by stating that unless he had a red carpet and unfettered access to his miserable little cab the train was going nowhere! What an arse! And then the 'train manager' stated that the 20-28 service to Leeds would be stopping at every lamppost between Victoria and Leeds. Cattle are treated better. Is there any point in writing to NorthernTrains? Didn't think so!

Oh, and by the way, I got in just turned 9pm.[/quote]

2 1/4 hours to Blackpool. Getting to M60 took nearly an hour. M60 and M61 were very dodgy til Chorley then clear.

It took me about two minutes longer than usual to get home yesterday because it took me about two minutes to brush the snow off the windows of my car before setting off.

I didnt get home in Stockport until well after midnight.
Which was fortunate as I wouldnt have been able to drink heavily in several different pubs if I had.

Took me 3 seconds to turn the tv over

took an hour and half instead of 20 minutes, everyone going slow on the way out of the velodrome!

Same as the Op..I was heading back to Leeds, left about 15 mins earlier as I had my little lad, and his mate with me, and didn't like the idea of being stuck on the M62 all night. Saw the traffic jam on the westbound..mental, went on for miles. Got home at 9.30, so not too bad at all!

I was home in the usual 20min and I'm just a couple of min from J22 of the M60.. maybe worth remembering for future ref.

Well. As a true supporter I stayed till the final whistle. Cheered the boys off. Shook hands with all the security guys. Reported a few people for smoking. Booed a couple of players I had taken a dislike to. Moaned at some people for going to get warm drinks at half time.
Oh, and i'm still here by the way. Wife say's she will pick me up.

PS .....Has hell frozen over yet ?
