A sticky situation...

Post by Horwood Beer-Master » Mon Sep 19, 2011 4:36 pm

This story's actually a few days old - but let's ignore that.
Syrup spillage shuts A20 road at Sellindge

Motorists faced long delays on the A20 in south Kent after a lorry shed its load of syrup.

The incident happened on the A20 at Sellindge between Ashford and Hythe at about 03:00 BST.

The road was closed for about five hours between the Otterpool Lane and Swan Lane junctions.

A Kent Police spokeswoman earlier said it would take a long time to scrub the road as syrup is "rather a sticky substance".

Trust PC Plod to state the obvious in a distinctly humourless manner. You'd think they try and work in a subtle joke somehow.
