I'm SICK of bloody snow. :doh

Drove down to the Pyrenees last Sunday night and ended up spending the night snowed into a service area near Orleans because the autoroute closed with nearly a foot of snow in places.....froze my cobs off til the snowplough came to the rescue!! still at least I had me little stove for a brew!

Then drove back up today through just over 500 bloody miles of it!!! Even chucking it down as far as Calais.....luckily though it was pi55ing down with rain in Kent, otherwise things would have been really nasty.....looks like theres been lots there!

had quite a thaw last night mind we need one with upto 2 foot to clear

was raining yesterday afternoon, icicles gone, bit of a sickner seeing
how many neighbours finally dug out their cars from it and their drives.

but still a frost overnight so caution folks.

some of the piles of snow ploughed up in car parks are impressive bet
they will take some thawing to go altogether.

wHOS GOT SNOW

Went out Saturday afternoon just for a ride about .
came across emergency services with a terrano lwb it had left the road and hit a steel armco barrier .otherwise a long drop onto railway line below.
ripped n/s wing clean off.
there were two young lasses with it looked to be in shock .
it was on a duel carriageway
totally cleared of snow.
so perhaps
BLACK ICE.

very possibly black ice .... ive heard that rock salt looses it affectiveness at -8 , so its not much use spreading it with the temps weve been having :doh

been very impresed with my T2 in just 2 wheel drive felt very sure footed in the snow bit trickier now on the side roads as we are driving around on 6 inch of pack ice so 4wd comes in handy
