I left home at 8am this morning from junction 20 on the M5 is now 11 am and I've traveled 25 miles exactly. Luckily I have plenty of Vaping great with me, 69 mod, Tzmax, MVP, and about 20 bottles of juice. I just wish I could coil and drive at the same time!

I hate journeys like that - living on the A2 and M25 it happens more often than I'd like! I stick my mods in the door handle, so I'm never far away from a vape when I need it... Hope you get there soon DiscoDes!

The M5 is the way south & we call it 'lemming syndrome'.
All these people with under-serviced caravans falling over, blocking everything year after year.
A bit of nice weather & everyone seems to be "I know - let's head south - nobody else will have thought of that!"
