Jules, The 303 is clear as a bell until you get to Ilminster - they have shut the 303/A30 becuase the diversion for the roadworks at Marsh is a a ickle bit slippy. When you get to Ilminster, dive up to Taunton and them down the M5. You will be fine from then on until you get to Bodmin... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigster Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 I was just about to say that myself.. it would seem the road fell apart after some rain fell a fews months ago.. It'll be shut for a while longer. sometime in April I think.. M5 at Taunton - nice and quick.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darthdicky Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Not had a huge amount down here in Exeter really, but more than I'm used to so can't complain. Driving up to the Peak District tonight so I hope we get some more snow there - should insulate the tents nicely! Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottydo Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 I had a couple of bumps on the way to work this morning, its the first time ive had a 90 sideways. I lost the terrier today when I took him for a walk up at crowcombe park gate the snow was that deep. Had a bit of fun driving part of the old coach road that goes across the top of the quantocks. and also made £20 pulling someone out of a ditch which always goes down well.

Turbocharger Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Dammit - got up at 5am, no snow, didn't even have to defrost the car. EGT gauge said 4°C. Drove to work, took the coach to Gatwick and only saw a flurry on the way (near a McDonalds, coincidentally). Got back to Bristol to hear reports of 3" in the depot "but it's all melted now". Still, sideways in 12 metres of coach wouldn't have been funny anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exmoor Beast Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 No photos of us high up on Exmoor but there was enough for some serious sledge fun today and I can confirm a 4.0V8 P38a with no clutch is a riot chasing a scooby imprezza across Brendon Common. I was very ipresed with the grip from the Pirelli STs even when trying to provoke it. More fun tomorrow hopefully Will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
