scraped the ice off it lol

Removed 4 inches of snow from it, then after getting it up to temperature realised that driving into town was a futile measure as the queue was past my road (1 1/2 miles!) so I left it on the drive and walked!!  :grin:

Tried to get in it: locks frozen
i then managed to unlock the boot and reach through to back door and open it. After starting and trying to reverse off the drive it became apparent that the handbrake was frozen on. The combo of this and a frozen driveway that points slightly uphill meant i was going nowhere.

To top it all off, when pushing the (stiff) front door of the house after i had given up, my feet gave way on the icy front path and i ended up on my arse  :rolleyes:

so the result is i got cold and i'm not going to get my abf bits today. Might aswell have stayed in bed!

Made it extremely dirty after a coastbound drive. And almost slid it into the house. Twice...  :laugh:
