Right I'm going to a BKS leathers in Exmouth this Friday. just wondering about traffic on a Friday morning. i need to get there for 10AM so leaving at 8 should be ample of time?
I live about 5 mins from Keynsham so was either going via chew vally lakes to Churchill then on the motorway or bristol onto the M32 then M4/M5. whats my best bet for missing any traffic

suggestions?

Avoid the section from Jct 30 to Exmouth! Don't have any advice for the Bristol end, but two hours should be ample. Be wary of Jct 27 Tiverton and 28 Cullompton as favourites for the local bib to sit and wait.

Great suits, and say hello to Brian for me.

He's a good freind. Known him for years, initially from various drunken evenings with Topsham Roundtable, and then continued without Roundtable!

Getting into Exmouth will be relatively easy. Getting out on a Friday lunchtime when the Marines Training Centre depart is a different matter.....

Fill your scooshers up. The M5 is howlingly filthy today.
