Lady Ferguson Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 The traffic Took me two and half hours to get from Oxford this afternoon. I came off the M5 at J17 because it had slowed to almost stationery, only to get on the A38 and find the same - had to get the Satnav to take me along B roads to get home. Hot and Tired Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDH Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Then again the A303 was shut for several hours at least 3 days in the past week. Traffic to the SW was extremely heavy Friday and yesterday, start of the holiday season I suspect. No Satnav Mandy, that would have helped (or should that be hindered!!)

Leakeyvale Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 There is/was game fairs taking place. One near Bicester and I am sure there is another Hampshire/Dorset this weekend. They would account for additional traffic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble is we'd be looking at about £20k for the equivelant new baler like this one mate and if we bought second hand who's to say we won't get one with more problems \ For the straw or the baler? I'll let you decide that one John :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
