Starbucks open on Christmas Day! Good to know as getting a min ride warmer is tricky on Xmas day.Yep, weather permitting. I either go on my own and enjoy the low traffic, bus free roads or meet a friend for coffee (unfortunately only Starbucks open but it's bearable once a year ).
Small family, no kids (luckily )
I'll see the family in the afternoon/evening
The Kingston Upon Thames one is, others around here weren't last year. Some petrol stations might be open wth their Costa machines or Wild bean at BP?Starbucks open on Christmas Day! Good to know as getting a min ride warmer is tricky on Xmas day.
Not necessarily with people travelling for dinner at a pub, friends, relatives and Christmas dinners taking place later than normal at pubs etc due to the sheer number of bookings. One of my longest waits to get across the A59 at Menwith Hill was on a Christmas day ride a few years ago.Christmas morning is busy with people going elsewhere. I expect around lunchtime would be quietest.
