I drove last year and fuck if i can remember. Jesus, i should have a decent excuse like drugs or something, but i have no idea? I just remember a load of 13 year old fat ginger chav cunts giving me some scary eyes full of mockney-gangster-yellow-sri-nova-18-inch-sub-bass-in-your-face-me-n-mates-on-yo-case death threats.

Been working in Brentwood, Essex for last couple of months so been making the trip around the M25 a couple of times a week back to Swindon area. Will take you around 2 hours to get around M4 and M25 J28 as there's a lengthy contraflow from M40 to M1 juctions and also around M11. Southend is about 20-25 from M25. Would say you would do it in 2'30-2.45 with a good run.

got driven to southend a few years back and the one thing that sticks out is - it was a bitch to find some where to park.

If we'd lost at Leeds i'd have said 500, feel good factor will up that by 50% i reckon. Large proportion of the london based are attending.

Really hard to tell with this one. In fairness, it is a reasonable trek from Swindon. Hopefull we'll take a fair few though after last night!

It involves driving in Essex FFS. I'm with John Peel who spent the best part of 20 years going miles out of his way on a daily basis to avoid it. When you work in central London and live in rural Suffolk that one fuck of a diversion but he did it every day. And for good reason. The roads are full of the chav fuckers that BS describes. It's like Mad fucking Max

I see our friends from the rough end of the A420 are playing Chelmsford.  Anyone going by train may want to wish them good luck at Liverpool St Station.
Or you may wish to wave them goodbye on the M25. Smug Fuck Off Smug Fuck Off
