Holiday on the M1

I'm sitting on the M1 motorway. The rain is hammering on the window, and I'm not going anywhere fast. The day started so well. It's Saturday and I've decided to take a day off. My brother is having a party in Maida Vale to celebrate his move from Xfm to BBC Radio 1 - an extraordinary career move. It's a straight forward 1 hour trip down the motorway, so we decided to pop in and see the family.

Four hours later and were still sitting on the motorway. The weather is terrible and multiple crashes have reduced the road to a car park. The inevitable "shall we turn back" conversation is on its fourth round, but so far we've remained committed to getting there, at least for half an hour before having to travel home.

You never know, it might clear up in a minute.
