Snow..
Don't get me wrong, I like the snow... But people don't half make a fuss about it!
Got about 2inches here and it's still coming down strong! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: Snow..
I dont see the big deal, a red warning????
Have they seen Canada? It's only snow! Driving is safe if you be careful, tbh riding a bike is still safe as long as you take the proper measures and have decent tires. |

Re: Snow..
People worry to much and panic buy everything its rediculous. I drove my beemer to work this morning and even did some doughnuts for some fun... apparently beemers dont work in the snow.

It is utter bull. We've not had refreezing thawed snow yet. That's when it gets really ice, so there's no dramas. It's pretty pathetic. Now must go and pick up all the dog turds form the garden before they get covered in snow else it'll be highly risky building a snowman later.

Re: Snow..
The fun with BMWs in the snow is to see if you can get ALL the yellow lights on at once. Extra points if you are going backwards at the time.

Re: Snow..
Just walked Jasper in it. It must be bad. I bet we have a whole 1mm
Although I do laugh at the advice on TV/Radio to only make essential journeys. Try telling the bosses of Britain that getting to work isn't essential.

Re: Snow..
No snow in London yet. First sign of snow and I'll start getting requests from my work lot "can you book us Hotels for the weekend if there's travel disruption"?
"What ? No feck off, slackers! |
