Snow thread
« on: 09 February 2012, 22:14 »
Surprised there are no complaint threads about the snow yet :shocked:

Anyone got much? Not a great deal here yet, would be good to have enough so that I can stay at home, but then my road / cul-de-sac turns into an ice rink and a pain in the arse because its brick paving  :undecided:

my cul-desack is the same mate.

i am starting to hate it, theres hardly any here, and the little that there is is on the paths and thats it, roads are clear, yet everyones still driving rediculously slow.

that coupled with the road works on the a66 are making it a nightmare for me, normally takes me 30 mins to get to work, its currently taking me 20 mins to get through the 4 or 5 miles of road works, then about 30 mins to do the rest of my journey  :angry:

Taken about half an hour ago and it's meant to snow until mid morning - early afternoon

The last few years people have always complained about the roads not being gritted etc etc.... But gotta hand it to the council this year all the roads near me have been really well gritted! I'm off to drive in some fresh power in about an hour should be fun! Times like this i do wish i had a 4motion tho!
