Back in my day, for most Stewarty girls, all it took was a couple of Blue WKD's to get that..!
I'm not from the Stewartry!!!

Round here its fine,
A roads and motorways are clear of the snow, spotted a couple of patches of ice on the way in (by car) but if it wasnt for my road I would have taken teh bike. I know the motorway (M1) from here to ripon is clear as a friend travelled that on Sunday.
I'd ask the sheffield lot what its like around there this time as if they've got it cleared then I'd assume your clear from there up to the boarder so that 100mile stretch should be fine.
