If you fancy driving in from the burbs for a pre Xmas punt, now is the time amazingly.
Never seen the likes, not even in lockdown
Drove in to pick up the wife, she needed to get to Stanstead for 7pm, I allowed 3 hours from the square mile, rush hour, Xmas shoppers and a bit for knob heads crashing or breaking down, journey time, 55 minutes and the old van only does 60 loaded.
Honestly if driving in at the holiday time has put you off, go for it, once I hit the Limehouse link, it was non stop free flowing all the way to the airport.
