Big shout out to the house down the back roads here that's handing out bottled water to the cars passing by, though!

[Adam Dowling 🎙️ @adamdowling]

AVOID THE A21 between Lamberhurst and Tunbridge Wells. Roadworks causing a queue the likes of which I've never seen before

And don't take the back roads through Pembury area. There's a sinkhole on a single track road that myself and about 300 other cars are currently stuck on

Not on the radio show today, as I'm off to see @raye at @TheO2 🙌🏼

Gutted not to be on air today though to delight in the football news...! "North London Forever" followed by "We Are The Champions" would have had a nice ring to it #Arsenal

Anyway - back tomorrow - with Suggs!!
