"The agency added the road was "likely to remain closed until Friday afternoon" pending the arrival of a clean-up team of sweet-toothed alcoholics."
OK, count me in...
Do they need help clearing it up? #

Free beer and marshmallows? sounds good to me.
Was the road desserted.....? #

Oh this one is definitely calling for a Lego diorama! Go on, I know you want to!

A friend of mine is a police officer. He was on traffic duty when a truck shed its load of frozen prawns all over the A14 near Cambridge on a hot summer day. It took the clean-up crew several hours to shovel up the spilled crustaceans, and by lunchtime, the stench was appalling.
Goodness #

I had a feeling I had my liquid lunch in the wrong pub today...
Up North #

They say "there's nowt stranger than folks". Most of the strange ones are up North so maybe a few sweet toothed alcoholics will happen by and clean it up before the clean up crew get there.
Mine's the one with Southern B**tard written on the back ;-)
Dammit #

Why was I not informed of this earlier. Beer and marshmallows on a Friday afternoon would have been nice.
You couldn't make it up... #
Posted Friday 28th November 2008 20:39 GMT
Marshmallows and beer... sounds like a recipe for a good night!!!!!
Mine's the "Stay Puft" costume...
all they'd need to do is........ #
Posted Friday 28th November 2008 20:39 GMT
go to the nearest secondary school and get all the kids down on the motorway. Give it and hour all the beer and sweeties would be gone !
The only things missing... #
Posted Friday 28th November 2008 20:39 GMT
...were the burning car over which to toast the 'mallows and the vending supply van with plastic cups to collect the beer with. When you're stuck on a motorway for hours with such delicacies, who cares about IT?
Fire? #
Posted Saturday 29th November 2008 08:51 GMT
All that was needed was a spark for a really good outing then?
I assume the IT content revolves around the marshmallows somehow?
Same thing happened last week #
Posted Saturday 29th November 2008 08:51 GMT
A similar thing happened last week nearby. A lorry had an accident and spilled 32 tons of Cialis pills on the motorway. You can imagine the congestion...
Are we sure #

This was an accident ?? I'd be looking for some frat boys.

On yer bike #

They forgot someone on their pushbike rode in to a solid wall of beery marshmallow and hasn't been seen since. I'm fine now thanks for asking; now I know where the idea for Teletubbies came from.

Yeah, well, some of those cleanup crews have very low standards of personal hygiene.
Thank you very much, I'm here all week, don't try the fish, it's been scraped off a motorway...

Some smartie on another site said that motorists were advised to stick to the inside lane to avoid the bottleneck.
There was also a massive collision between a berry truck and a sugar truck down the road #

It caused a real traffic jam.
