I remember them building the M25. Yes. I am that old. Little did I know back then when I was living in the West Midlands that the motorway designed to speed traffic around London would be such a part of my life.
There have been many times the circular motorway has done what it promised and let me drive quickly and easily to my destination.
But there have been probably more times I have inched along vast stretches of the tarmac watching brake lights twinkle in front of me - miles in front of me!
At least when I was stuck on it yesterday along that stretch past Heathrow airport there were pretty clouds to watch!
