Really looking forward to the chaos down south, police blocked the main routes up my hill last year cos it had 2 inch of snowfall on it. Pah, could of got up that on my motorbike Transit made it every where, only had to stop for abandoned vehicles blocking the road. All our motors are fitted with tyres with proper amounts of tread on this year, can't wait

Oh yes and for the college bus to go sideways back down a hill it was trying to go up. That was a tad scary. For some insane reason the council haven't gritted at all!!

Just to say it's.. (brace yourselves) *too warm in swansea* to snow for now.

Had a light spattering here just before 9. Was snowing pretty heavily for about an hour, but it only started to settle properly towards the end. Probably about 2" of it settled, and about an inch on the roads. The MX-5 was surprisingly well behaved, and a good laugh on the empty roads.

[Lawsy]

i hope we get some..

cant wait this year, just makes me chuckle the peeps round here arent used to it (i'm a northerner livin darn sarf) plus i got rid of the slammed wagons and have the truck now.. happy days

Last year i had some fun trying to get my mk2 polo up a steep hill in portsmouth , Loads of wheelspin and slidy backwards , Using the curb and lots of side to side movement of the front end to get it to move... I was cracked up laughing... My dad, The passenger was less amused.

I'm looking forward to snow + carlton + asdas carpark on sunday this year....

my CB7 Coupe getting cold (polos in the barn out of reach)

I used to look forward to having fun driving about in the snow now all you do is sit traffic in it because of the amount of morons who can't drive unless their car has a mode for it or has some bits of "safety"kit that will do all the work for them so they can mindlessly sit behind the wheels like they do normally . sounds negative I know but look around and tell me I'm, wrong common sense went out the window a few years ago and now all the roads are left with is 95% of drivers with no clue how to do stuff the cars can't do for them .
i'll be driving when I need to and not driving when I don't . going out for the fun of it in the snow can't be done in southend any more due to the place being full of idiots
have a pic of my old golf from last years snow as penance for my ramblings about how depressing the roads round here are these days
