No snowflakes here, just frost.

My first foray this season to watch Town play Brighton, trust me to choose the coldest dsy of the year!

[Jan Rosser]

Picture postcard pretty here - car may be staying in garage today though - the hill I live on is looking a bit dodgy

[Stephen]

Almost beer and nibble time.

[Mervyn and Trish]

More snow today but still not too bad. A lot more forecast tonight. But we old gits don't have to go out!

[Stephen]

Nope.

The log fire will be burning away nicely while I'm watching strictly with my feet up and sipping on a whiskey.

No snow here....yet. The BBC online weather says persistently raining tomorrow, yet the local radio are saying we are in for heavy snow

[Happydays]

We are meant to have it dry and overcast tomorrow! I will accept that been quite a good day here, probably put a jinks on it!

[towny44]

The BBC weather has gone from heavy snow showers all day here, to light snow showers from 9:00 to 12:00 noon, I will gladly accept the latter.

[Stephen]

Just started snowing here and it's settling on wet ground. Supposed to be going over to mother in-laws today for family get together lunch.

Oh dear, we might not be able to go due being snowed in

[towny44]

How awful for you Stephen.

[Stephen]

Nightmare journey over. Not a single road gritted . Went a*se over tit on the ice and snow at the out laws, then couldn't get the car up the hill to park ready for going home. Good old neighbours recued me though. Wish I'd stayed at home.

[Happydays]

Should have cancelled. Surely they would have understood, if the roads are bad no sense in travelling if it's not urgent

[Stephen]

I don't like being defeated.

[Manoverboard]

Masda's don't do 4 x 4s, snow tyres or chains then ... just saying

[Stephen]

Oh yes they do. All wheel drive options. Mine has traction control. Not that I can use it at the moment as it's back at the dealership.

[Happydays]

Drive home safely!

[Mervyn and Trish]

David Attenborough pissing me off tonight. I've enjoyed his latest series but he's using the last episode to preach the climate change agenda again.

As an ex employee are you banned from complaining direct to the BBC?

[Mervyn and Trish]

No. But I just like a moan

[Stephen]

No. But I just like a moan

Join the club. I've sent our highways dept a pleasant email asking them in no uncertain terms why none of the roads were gritted Saturday night/Sunday morning.

[Happydays]

Good luck with that!
If they are anything like our useless lot it will have been a waste of time and effort.......

[towny44]

Most of our highway, and pathways, budget seems to be spent on keeping the route into town clear, from the area where most of the asylum seekers seems to be housed, it's the best maintained part of town and has the best of our limited floral displays.
