Magpie 246



An empty petrol tank is hell.
An empty battery as well.
But for this driver, perfect bliss
Is an empty motorway, like this.


When I vist my daughter, I use the M3,  and I rejoice as I spin past the junction that leads to the dreaded M25, revelling in the empty ribbon of road that lies ahead. (When I visit eldest son, it's payback time, as I have to use the M25.)

(With thanks to Tess at Magpie Tales for the picture.)

  3. I enjoy night-time driving. You can always see when there's a car coming, and the roads are clear. Just make sure you have that tank full!

  12. Love it. Am reminded of M25 being one large, circle of a car park and that was 20 odd years ago!! Be better soon.
