We've stayed at the caravan today. Just had a walk to the beach. No way was I going out.

Go for a ride on your bike instead and you can pass all those cars stuck in a queue, I did today.

They don't seem to like folk doing that, moving when they aren't.

Wouldn't be a Bank Holiday without traffic jams and old uncle Joe out on his second car trip of the year.

I remember driving past long hold ups when returning from Belgium when we had a Lambretta. Furious shouts of rage from open car windows as we drove up past them all.

My elderly neighbour (in his 70s) always had a long standing duty to take his even more elderly mum (90s) out every bank holiday Monday to the Norfolk coast. She always moaned about the traffic on the way.
I said to the neighbour "Why do you have to take her on a bank holiday? You're both long retired, you can go whatever day you want. It'll be quiet on any given Wednesday".
He said she wouldn't accept such a suggestion, it just wasn't traditional since they'd always done a bank holiday run to the coast. Silly, stubborn old beggar.

Mrs 26 has avoided BH travelling and most of the Motons. She headed out down the M5 at 5 am this morning.

I have a perfectly serviceable garden, so I spent the day in it.
I once cycled past a Lamborgini when it was stuck in traffic, he got really quite cross. I just laughed.

I once tried to drive down into the Cotswolds on a bank holiday Monday, what possessed me to make me think that was a good idea I've no idea, it was the only time I tried it.
