Is there racing at Kempton?


Hmmm... Yes, there is. Its Irish Night tonight. I suppose that could be
partly to blame.

But I'm pretty sure other grid locks have occurred when there was no
racing
at Kempton.

"Sheer volume of traffic" is one phrase that I've heard. I walked faster
than the 290 toward Sunbury X one Friday evening. Passed the previous (20
mins earlier) service after about 3 minutes of walking.
