Thinking of using the M25 today? Forget it...

BBC travel news currently shows 35 miles of tailbacks clockwise in Surrey, 30 miles in Hertfordshire, 9 and 10 miles each direction at the Dartford Crossing. That's 84 miles of queuing cars, I find that astonishing. Think of all the fuel, all the emissions, the bored/screaming kids in the heat - the annual summer holiday getaway off to a fine start.

For anyone caught in that, you have my sympathy.
