Its the end of the world!!!
 
according to the news last night it was going to be snow appocalyse today, im glad i put the chains on last night and packed my snow survival pack it was utter madness blasting my way thro the mutated snow men with my shot gun and fighting off the wild bears, me having to drive like a rally driver to avoid the explosions, not to menstion the 5 days stuck in the snow that i survived!!! all the time wave105 telling me to be carefull as its madness!!!

actually no.... the plan was to get up and leave 30mins early..... i couldnt be arsed and left 5 mins earlier, the traffic was so bad im at work 15 mins early.... and!!! i found out where im working today there is no snow!!

so much for the inchs of snow, i think theres barely 5mm

Same here, I thought about leaving early and only made it 5 minutes after making a coffee to bring with me in the car.
Traffic was really light and got here 20 minutes early.
Bugger.

mega-lulz at your OP widepants :lol:

I just got maria off to work, her car was a bit slow to crank this morning so I'm concerned about her battery but it did fire up as normal.

I'm going nowhere on my own transport for a few days!

be safe out there

My whole office is shut today by the looks of things (can't get through on the phones).

We've had quite a lot of snow here.

Only just made it from the bedroom to my office at the back of the house. The stairs were a blur, especially the first bend. SWMBO had braved the kitchen and managed to brew a coffee.

Will I need to change out of my shorts before I go out to give blood?

Had a couple inches here when I woke up. It's snowing heavy here now, but I don't actually mind driving in it, and as I have this I actually go looking for the deeper stuff anyhow:

Only a bit of snow up here, but why oh why do the councils not grit the side roads, I have had to push 3 neighbours cars to help them crest the little hill outside my house.

Last year we put grit down ourselves. first vehicle up was a road sweeper that removed the grit.
