leemond2008 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Rumours going around Brum that the buses are stopping at 2pm where have these rumours originated from? someone here is married to a bus driver (or something like that) and he is keeping her updated on all that sort of stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choffer Posted January 18, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted January 18, 2013 Anyone know how trains from b'ham to London are looking ? A good number of delay at the moment but Euston-bound trains are unaffected as yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekka Posted January 18, 2013 Author VT Supporter Share Posted January 18, 2013 Light snow in Leeds last night, not much beyond that so far. Supposed to be on its way. Don't think the bulk of it will reach Leeds It's now pivoting and dying out further north Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 It's about 6 inches deep here, I've just got home early. Don't know if work will credit me yet, they couldn't make a decision before I left, so I thought **** it and went. Buses stopped a couple of hours ago here, luckily I got a lift.

leemond2008 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I work near Colmore row and we are still at work, pissed off I am, apparently there has been a big crash on the aston expressway so my busses will be **** and everywhere is at a stand still on the way out of town will they let us go early...will they **** the reason's I have heard so far have been ''If we let you go now and you slip and break your leg then the company will be liable for it'' upon hearing the roads were at a stand sill ''well there you go then if you stay here till 5 then the roads mite be clear so there is no point in you leaving now'' bastards, as I said I'm not bothered about going early but if I am going to struggle to get back then year I wanna get out as early as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted January 18, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted January 18, 2013 Thing is, it's probably right. From past experience, the roads are at their worst earlier on when all the people leaving early to beat the rush clog them up. By normal going home time they are often OK.

dubbs Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 (edited) Left work in castle brom by the jag at 1. Got home to Tipton at 4:30. First time driving in snow, scary stuff. But dont you see some knobheads driving in this weather? Why dont people take a chill pill. Its not like we're driving slow for the fun of it. Take it easy out there guys and girls.
