    I wanted more snow but not right now.
    My family is in Malta and now stuck there as Gatwick flights are cancelled yet again, my other half can't get down and I'm out of milk!

    This is the view from where I'm sitting, still hammering it down in massive chunks.

    got a few inch in Cheshire
    Someone left a note on a piece of cake in the fridge that said, "Do not eat!". I ate the cake and left a note saying, "Yuck, who the hell eats paper ?

    Re: Snow no, not again!

    finally got some snow

    15 inches at least.
    I was woken up to the sound of it sliding off the roof, splatting next to the car, along with half the gutter.


    and ive just looked outside and seen a bunch of kids chucking snowballs at passing cars. I can hear the sound of drivers swearing from here.

    and a bit more gutters just come off.

    Re: Snow no, not again!

    Got caught out in it driving. Not good. Thankfully by about 2:20pm it had eased, and by 3pm I could make my way back again without too much of a hitch.

    Some great people out there helping to push my BMW up a hill. Next car is either going to be a Scooby or a rear wheel rear engine car...

    Re: Snow no, not again!

    There are rather a lot of smug 4x4 drivers out today. I've seen a few especially smug ones with large, chunky tyres which they've obviously dusted off and fitted this morning. One of the silly buggers ended up sideways coming around a corner. All the gear and no idea.

    I took the BMW out when it was still snowing quite heavily this morning and I had no problems apart from going down one hill where I almost didn't stop in time for a mini roundabout with no traffic around anyway. And yet, there were dozens of FWD hatchbacks struggling to get anywhere.

    What is it with pedestrians stepping out in front of cars on snow? I was tempted to keep going through some of them but thought better of it.

    Bah humbug.
