After having a seriously sh1t evening stuck in traffic and taking 1hr 10mins to get from Bolton to Didsbury on the M61/M60 and it turn out to be a wasted journey I decided to go back home through the centre of Manchester and avoid the motorway.

On Manchester Inner ring road where it passes over Hyde Road, I went over the junction at about 36mph, saw the whitelines barely visible due to all the other lines on the tarmac and saw a double flash.

Well I think I've been caught and I'm seriously p1ssed off about it. The road is dual carriage way and I can't see any reason for it to be a 30. And what a tricky ing place to put a camera.

Suppose I can be happy in the knowledge that the government will probably spend my speeding tax on introducing the "get to work tax" also known as the Manchester congestion charge. Great frown

What is that all about driving in this country nowadays - it's just no fun....
