A couple of questions for the clever people on my flist

Just need some info for my [livejournal.com profile] summer_of_spike fic and I think there's probably someone out there who can help me?

First: How long does it take to drive from LA to Vegas? Just approximately.

Second: Have you Americans ever heard of Branston Pickle? (I'm hoping not...)

Thanks! :)

According to Mapquest, it takes about 4 hours. And I've never heard of Branston Pickle. :)

After my last post, I'm hoping they haven't either! ;)

Mapquest's times are seldom accurate as they don't figure in traffic congestion. I think when you factor in traffic it'd be closer to 5 or more hours. It'd take me between 4 and 4 1/2 hours to drive to LV from San Bernardino and LA is about an hour west of SB.

I've never heard of Branston Pickle either.

I wholly agree with the poster above. From LA to Vegas can differ on the driver, the car, the stops and more importantly, traffic. I've known some people who did the trip in under 3 hours. Yikes.

I'd say average is probably closer to four and a half to five hours. Add an hour for the drive back if you leave on a Sunday after 12 noon.

I've no clue what a Branston Pickle is. But now I want to know!

OK - I've heard of people doing odd things with ice-cream, with champagne,with chocolate (especially Mars bars of course!) - but Branston pickle? That I have got to read!!!

I love Branston Pickle! Can't wait to see what you have planned for it. *g*
