The snow ploughs came past 2 hours ago widening the driveable road and reblocking every ones drive with ploughed snow:rolleyes: but I won't complain as they are doing a damn fine job round here. Local council say we still have at least 2 weeks worth of grit at max capacity:D
although I was surprised to see 2 gritters an hour ago as although it's cold the drivable bit of the roads are clear. buuuutttttttt..........
they obviously knew more than me:o because it's snowing hard... again...:D
We've not had any real snowfall for three days but apparently its snowing in Harrogate. Maybe its heading this way?! :cool:
We had another snowfall last night and again this afternoon. Sick of it now. :(
FOUR of my neighbours helped to dig and push my car out today! It was a funny scene for me sat there like lady muck while they busted a gut.....it was like having servants.....'tally ho' I shouted! (in my poshest poshest voice) :D
The roles were reversed later though when I helped push another neighbour out! ;)
Just cleared the car and been out in it for the 1st time in 3 days. IMO driving conditions are worse.
Mother Nature's also currently having a damn fine attempt to drop a few more inches over here. Coming down thick and fast.
Couldn't agree more MG I am sick of it and it's not even that bad in Nottingham. My street has been like an ice rink for days, I nearly slipped over 3 times on the way to the station this morning :mad: My feet are cold ALL the time & I have only met my new boss once - she's not made it into work since the first day.Quote:

No Snow here in Lancs....yet!
Last night's sprinking didn't come to much although there's a bit more cloud about than last few days. Think I might nip up Ilkley Moor later to check out the conditions ;)
Hehe, I'm going to nip over Pendle and have a look for any suspect clouds, oh and do a bit of tread spotting when not waist deep in drifts :)Quote:

Going nowhere today either :(
Lots more snow overnight and it's really foggy and snowing AGAIN!
Hope it's gone by next weekend! :)
No chance MG.Quote:
