Britpick Question

[amberfocus]

Does anyone know how long it takes to drive from London to Cardiff on a typical weekend day and then a weekday evening leaving Cardiff around sevenish and heading back?  I know it's 132 miles, but I'm more concerned with time than distance.  Time depends on speed limits, rush hours, traffic and road conditions, so if anyone has experience with it could you let me know?  Also is there a good midway point where you'd stop and stretch your legs or get a bite to eat?  A restaurant, a park, something like that?

the pot kiln off the road from Chieveley station is a pretty good place to eat. and it takes 3 hrs with good traffic, 3 1/2 to 4 with bad traffic, watch out for the traffic cameras on the M4
