I love snow, especailly if I dont have to go out in it.

I don't mind driving in it, but riding the bike is a total no-no. lol

Where I am we're lucky to get more than a few inches, and the roads are always pretty well cleared due to the explosive nature of the BP...lol

it has been very frosty here but i was on shift last night and blue light driving in the frost (-7) was quite scary.

Got home at 2 in the morning and it was just starting to snow. Got up this morning to about 4 inches of snow. It's very powdery and not too good for building snow men.:(

I'm getting bored of it TBH...

It snowed here on the 16th December and its been white ever since....
Haven't been on my bike since then and it's driving me mad....

Nice day today with a beautiful cloudless sky but it's currently -6 degrees out !!!!

Bike's outside too... it's under a Stormex cover so is protected from the worst of it .... Its been bloomin cold up tho... went to start her up at the weekend and the cover was frozen to the ground.... :shock:
I start her up once a week and let her warm up to about 75 degrees... also wheel her round to stop the tyres suffering too much...

Strange how "global warming" seems to have disappeared from the news... it's all a government tax conspiracy!!!!

Roll on spring!

oh... Happy New Year everyone!

Send a bit of that sun west ways will you?

Freezing fog is just not lifting over the Clyde.

Roads are well salted but still slidey from the "salt":rolleyes: they use now. Thick with it. Wish I was on a wee trailie.

Roll-on the heavy rain!:p

Snow, snow, snow - been stuck since wednesday - thick ice on roads here and schools closed everywhere - no work for me!!! TBH - I kinda want to get back to work now. More snow due over weekend so not looking good still.
