Blue Maserati GranTurismo this morning approaching the roundabout under the M4 at Pencoed, (where the traffic lights haven't been working all week and the traffic just flows . . . strange that).

Might have seen the same one in Ogmore yesterday evening. Number plate read something like LOT?

Great looking car but the yellow didn't 'pop' as much as expected.

Must have been before the M4 hell was forced on the whole area between Margam and Pencoed. Never experienced gridlock like that around here before.

Queued all the way from Sony around Pencoed through Heol y Cyw to the roundabout at Bryncethin. As soon as I went over the roundabout towards Brynmenyn it cleared right up.

Anyways. Lovely blue A110 on the M4 tonight by Port Talbot. Made my evening.

Not even last Wednesday when they closed the Margam stretch & Britton Ferry Bridges? A friend of mine was stuck for four hours on the M4 yesterday, having witnessed the accident.

I wasn't anywhere near Margam or Briton Ferry last week, wasn't even aware of it. Yesterday was unusual because the M4 was closed for many hours in both directions. Traffic was being directed from Pencoed through Bridgend which already had many delays because of the numerous road works including traffic lights and single lanes. From Margam I guess traffic must have been diverted to Pyle?

I was in Bridgend, Porthcawl, Kenfig Hill, Cefn Cribwr and Laleston and the main roads were stop-start for hours and that spilt onto the adjoining roads and so on. Even the lanes were chaotic. It was like a perfect storm.

Traffic was diverted onto the A48 through Pyle and Water Street through Cornelly. Progress was slow.

Green new model Aston Martin on Coychurch roundabout then an older Aston Martin on the M4 heading East by Pencoed. The green one looked like the Vantage from the Ewenny area.

Although I haven't seen it on the road yet there's also a new red Urus Performante here as well.
