    I've just heard on the news that the M1 is closed in both directions at J32/33 due to Marmite, :eek: Now is it Marmite or is it Marmite, do they have filter like we do on here ? Wonder if we'll ever find out

  9. Normally on the traffic reports they warn of delays due to a shed load. They never say what it's a shedload of :D

  12. M1 South Yorkshire, southbound between A630 [M1 junction 33] and M18 [M1 junction 32]
    M1 South Yorkshire - Queueing traffic and long delays on M1 southbound from J33, A630 (Catcliffe) to J32, M18 (Thurcroft), because of an earlier overturned tanker and shed load of Marmite. All lanes have been re-opened. Congestion to J34, A631 (Meadowhall).

  13. Spread it over the road and call it tarmac....much better use than eating and the smell is similar :))
     
  14. Sounds like a sticky situation whatever it is. :)
     
  15. I heard this and knew there would be a thread in process. Good job theres no magnolia refernces involved or this would be extremely confusing.
    fact
     
  16. I can't see why they have to close both sides - it's not like it's going to gush out is it??? ???
