    People moaning about traffic. We've just got into Chepstow. Took a totally different route and the traffic was more than fine.

    Not sure "moaning" is the right word there. We all know there are alternative ways to get to places but you take a chance whichever way you go.

    The only certainty is that the stretch of the M5 from Gloucester down past Avonmouth is going to be busy on a holiday Saturday. It's just the way it is but plenty of people go that way anyway, hoping for the best.

    Well done for picking the right diversion :)

    Common sense prevails. I didn't choose it as we went with a bus but I'll pass on the congrats!

    Lorry load of wigs, apparently.
    Police are combing the area.

    From the Plymouth herald. I don't know who is more confused, me or the guy who wrote the article.

    The incident happened early this morning on the Plymouth-bound carriageway between junctions 14 and 15.
    The road was initially closed but one of the three lanes opened at around 6.30pm.
    Recovery was en route by 7am but two lanes remained shut by 7.30pm.
