It was the 2nd one I was a bit miffed with. He actually drove past me as I was coming home and when they finaly got back from Edinburgh his wife gave me ?5 for petrol :-\

Whit a big saftie you are, should have played the insurance card, named driver only, me. It works for me otherwise my youngster would nick the Landy

Hi,

Monday afternoon, East Kilbride expressway. Drove wrong way down the slip road at Blantyre to reach staff stuck coming from the raith interchange then pulled 10-15 cars (and a Transit) from the front of the line off the expressway onto the road to Blantyre and took a mother and baby (who were clambering over the central reservation !) home.

That finally cleared the road to get my staff/vehicles to the front and back to depot.

Great fun. Think I enjoyed it better than the clutch.!
easy 10" of snow on the bit no-one had reached.

Good times!
