" so it can be a bit of a bunfight"

I have never seen buns used in the Easyjet queue at John Lennon International. Tear gas - yes, UZI - yes, swords - yes.

Buns - far too civilised and Oxford collegish for Easyjet.

Behave yourself again Janisj - about the size of this island : I frequently have done Carlisle to Cornwall, return in a day. Just get a large car and an awareness for where PC Plod hides.

Be also aware of any Volvo 850 saloons - 2002 to 2006 - no private individuals bought them - only PC Plod to use as plain persuit cars to catch speeders.

You have to remember that the motorway speed limits in the UK are optional and only become an issue should you be caught.

And did you have three small kids in the car?

PQ

There is a chemist in Carlisle that does great under the counter sedatives - usually used in vets for horses - that usually sorts out my 2 year old.

But no there were no children involved in these trips.
