“Avoid Huddersfield at all costs. I can’t exaggerate how awful it is there at the moment”.
No, this advice comes not from me or some other hotel victim, but from the chap who does the traffic on Radio Leeds. His warning, earlier this evening, was referring to the flooding that has closed off half the town. Fortunately I heard the tip before I set off from Leeds, and was able to exploit my local knowledge to good effect. But I did ponder the words as I drove back, and have decided I need to get back to Leeds next week. Nostalgia is all very well, but it’s gone a bit too far this time.
Another brief clatter round the town this morning for a couple of miles. Nothing to report. Nothing.
