I love it lots!

It's beautiful and lovely.


It's just annoying when people don't know how to drive in it!

As long as he's safe, that's the important thing. There's no way he'd be going anywhere tonight so hotel is the best plan.

Will! I'm listening to BBC Berkshire at the moment and there seem to be incessant rants about people queue jumping. I know you're an experienced driver though so I'll let you off.

There's a difference between queue jumping and driving around people who are seemingly not capable of progressing.

No snow here yet but if it does fall overnight we're screwed. Ice with a layer of snow on top

That's exactly what we've got at the moment Leo (see photos above!) - hellishly slippery.

Knipples - I was driving her to work so worry not I think it will be the longer way from now on though, gritted roads ftw.

nice! don't you love defrosting snow which freezes again and then get a fresh dump of snow on top! I'll be careful skating to the car again in the morning :/

That was my excuse - people really weren't getting anywhere - revving the nuts of the their cars, and the smell of clutches were everywhere!

I'm not saying what I did was necessarily right or sensible, but i wanted to get home

I REALLY needed a pee!

Don't get like that Will, it's not your fault loads of people can't actually drive

I've been getting (slightly) annoyed at some of the people who drive at 5mph for no real reason at all.
