Where abouts? Central London was fine on my way to work this morning. East london/essex had a bit more snow last night though but nothing major. Most round here has melted on the roads so you should be ok

 Do you know the road? what car?
Ahhh you're training it. If you get to fenchurch street you can get a train from there to rainham station. They run about every half hour during the day.
If you go underground you'll have to get off at elm park or dagenham east and get a bus into rainham village.
all depends where abouts in rainham you need to get to. I'd help ya out if i was at home.
Trains were fine going between london and rainham this morning so you shouldnt have much trouble when you get down south.

Post code is near the big Tesco. Best bet is to get to Fenchurch street then get a c2c train to Rainham station, its prob 5/10 minute walk from there depending on which road. Just make sure you take a map

Yeah go past there quite a bit. its not far from the Big tesco which has a petrol garage if you need some juice on the way back. (Usually the cheapest in the area) And its right next to the A13 which will get you to the M25.
c2c is the train company www.c2c-online.co.uk, being taken over by national express so the trains may have that on them aswell/instead of c2c.

Yeah tube can be confusing if you havn't been on it before I've been on it hundreds of times now and agree its ghey!
Was it the sorting office by the station that you were at? I've only ever seen a fat woman when I've been there she looks like she stiiiiiiiiiiiiinks
Glad the car is back safe and sound
