M25 closed.........

..............in both directions due to an overturned fuel lorry

more mayhem and chaos on the uk roads

not good if your trying to get away for xmas

[dabow]

if this so called great briton had ordered enough grit, may be the roads would be a little more drivable.

there will be more chaos before we see the end to this big freeze

[gwr northants]

It is quite sad how things are run in this country

[whiteknuckleride]

i know your point boys but i think sometimes logistically the gritting of the roads just cannot happen as fast as the snow falls therefore causing problems

i think the best they can is being done in what is an abnormal situation

[whiteknuckleride]

this bloody global warming is gettin terrible

[gwr northants]

you have a point ady , but from a transport and logistical side ?? ok im a truck driver lol , the weather forecast the other week said heavy snow ice etc,,, they didnt even grit the m25 one of the busiest roads in Europe and you had people with young kids stranded in cars for 8 hours , its a bloody joke , ya cant mess about like that were kids are concerned i found it a bad joke fella , dart ford bridge didnt get gritted you had artics having to reverse down off it now that ain't good , fair enough there not gonna get all places done but they should still be doing better than wot they have

[whiteknuckleride]

yeah thats bad gaz - good to here of real experience

[dabow]

there just not gritting. and to be honist, helping them selves.

regards global warming. thats rubbish, as that would be making the planet warmer, not colder.

even on the net, they say global warming has been put on hold as all over the world the temp is colder, not warmer.

its also 50/50 in the scientists eyes.

but thye fact we pay more taxes for this 50/50 is redick.

and with all the tax, they carnt even grit the roads

i'll take a breather know guys. what a rush, that coffee must have been strong

[whiteknuckleride]

my global warming post was called irony Dave lol

For years geographers/meteorologists have been arguing against global warming in terms of previous temp fluctuations and fluctuations in the ozone layer being related to the coming of a second ice-age ( this takes thousands of years etc) only thing we may be doing is speeding the process up a bit. I'm with the geographers corner.
