Alex Wakefield thought his round trip from East Sussex to East Anglia would take about 5 hours. In fact he left his house early in the morning and returned at 1.15am the next day.
He got stuck on the M11 motorway for 8 hours whilst 200 litres of spilled cooking oil was cleaned up.
Not missing an opportunity to do something with his time he wrote !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! of his day, and a comprehensive review of the Ford Focus Ecoboost at 0.05mph to boot.
Here are a couple of extracts:

The overhead gantries issued a warning not to use the hard shoulder, but it was comprehensively ignored. I can only hope that these people had a hard time from those at the front of the queue as they tried to barge in.
