I seem to have spent half my adult life in traffic jams in Glossop on the way to and returning from Wales and other places.

If I head across the Snake Pass to get to Glossop for just after 5:15 , is it going to be guaranteed absolutely horrendous?

I need to get to Lancaster from Sheffield and the earliest I can leave is 16:15. The alternative is oop the M1 then across the M62 to Manchester then up.

I sound so much like my dad it's depressing :-/

I'd leave it till later before setting off, and not just for the glossop bit. The m67/60/61 has the potential to be as bad/worse than mottram hill.

M1 and across the 60 then 61 again, you go through some mega traffic hot spots.

I'd leave it until at least 6 maybe 7 ish before setting off.

The problem is that we have mini RRR with us and a late bedtime in a strange house (visiting friends) could equate to an apopoleptic melt down when we arrive ...
