Just had an email alert from the DSA:

With schools breaking up for half-term, roads are expected to be particularly busy on Friday 28 May, and again on Saturday.
The AA predict that routes to the south west of England are likely to be the busiest, with congestion also expected on main routes to the coast and national parks.
The Highways Agency is due to complete 23 sets of roadworks before the weekend and is suspending 31 other sets from 6.00 am on Friday until midnight on bank holiday Monday.
Although 32 sets of roadworks will remain in place over the weekend, including those on a section of the M25 in Hertfordshire.
The Highways Agency is telling people to check their journey before leaving.

The Met Office weather forecast looks good (which means it might be cold and wet, or it might be hot and sunny). The May Bank Holiday is the bank holiday formerly known as Spring Bank Holiday, by the way.
I’ll be working , though.
