ventaHa! I am stuck in a traffic jam on the way home from Whitby. I'd just dropped ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif){kind=small}
davefish off at his workplace when the M1 ground to a complete halt. Handbrake on, then phone out, then engine off.
But I have just discovered that, when I packed the 4G Wi-Fi dongle we've been using this weekend in our cottage, I didn't turn it off. It's sitting in a bag in the boot, providing me with a decent internet connection.
All traffic jams should have Wi-Fi :)
