Anyone else notice that they closed one lane into the tunnel on Monday with no road works etc? Seems like it was done to prevent any shenanigans....

When we drove past there were a couple of guys fiddling with some electrics.

Don't think it was anything to do with LM, usual lack of foresight regarding a busy travel day in an already busy town.

Embarrassed to say I was the Noble. Childish perhaps but it was great fun. And a nice break from all the rain. There was a Corvette in the mix too.
