Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
 

Took the park and ride into work yesterday due to the forecast snow. The snow came and the buses got cancelled. I then had a 4 mile walk back to the park and ride depot to collect my car. Not much fun. Soaked feet and my knee hurt. Such is life.

Amazing how a likkle bit of snow can grind this country to a halt, unless it was that bad.

I don't remember buses being cancelled back in the day, I suppose it's got something to do with gits claiming against the bus companies insurance, so they're not prepared to risknit in bad weather.

I have Nokian WR-D3 winter tyres on the car and they are awesome and exceeded my expectations - better in mud than summer tyres as well.
Trouble is if in traffic you will still be held up with everyone else, and some numpty bound to slide into you - it is not only traction
for pulling away you need but also for stopping the vehicle.

a 4x4 with summer tyres is a chocolate teapot in snow. Just watched a Volvo 4x4 fail on the least sloping bit of roads off our estate --
sorry that should have gone into 'smile of the day' section LOL

50 miles of tailbacks on the A12. Don't think I'll try to leave Chelmsford.

All heading to Lakeside for a shopping trip, should've stayed at home.
