Yeah I can pretty much leave my house and within 15mins be on a byways that link me all the way to Salisbury plain, think I once drove from my house to Newbury via Salisbury plain and averaged 10miles an hour the whole way there :lol: it took nearly 12 hours.
what's less than a 60 mile journey we made 120miles long :lol:

Some of the byways along that route are shut now though :evil: one of them was that one we went to after Southampton dan, the one with the log across the start :thumbdown:
