suggest you sell the car and get a helicopter, thats the only real solution

tho if to costly, let some air out of your tyres and your car will be lower





seriously tho, its not that bad on a saturday, but early sunday morning takes about 30mins to drive if you take it easy? and theres no traffic then?

...as long as there is a helicopter dealership in Chelmsford. I'm not being funny Fil, but if he's paying for the helicopter, then he shouldn't really have to drive anywhere to pick it up should he.
