I know where it is, the top road going to Shuttleworth. I get my car MOT'd at Garric .... in the dip just further up from Marshalls, towards the motorway. I have good friends who live in Nangreaves, which, if you have a proper 4x4, is left at the lights up the hill.
You must be at the top of the ladder if you're driving all that way each day for work!!!  ::)  ::)  ::)  ::)

And how long does that take you each day?
Yes, you do have to go to where the work is, that's why I'm at Heinz 20odd miles away, I feel like it's only a local journey now you've told me how far you travel.

That'll be 'Death Valley' on the M60 (formerly M62) between Jct 17 Whitefield & jct 15 where the M61 joins. If you listen to Sally traffic on Radio 2 there's an accident or 2 most weeks somewhere round there. It's usually 4 lanes of stationary traffic at 'rush hour'  :-?  :y
