    Morning all ^.^

    Just had a look at transport and no bus outside of mine till at least tomorrow and its at least at hours walk to a tram so have relented and called work to tell them I can't go in :D

    Does worry me that they've predicted another 2 days of snow tomorrow and friday :think:

  • Snowing here now but nothing serious.
    Looks as if the schools are open.
    No sign of dustmen or gritters.

    Another day to fill.

    Well I've only had about 2-3" of global warming drop down last night, so not too bad at all. Hope it keeps the traffic down.

    Sounds like you've been a Snow Run Mum - but an :A to all concerned.

    Becks - they grit the *pavements*?! How posh is that?!

    It is Westminster council - they have 24 hour street cleaners so they do it as they are cleaning you see - makes sense to me :D

    Have got roughly knee deep snow on my drive so methinks I might be digging my poor little rust bucket of a car out later...........was supposed to be driving ti see a friend for a long run...........possibly not as it is still snowing:D
    Proud to be dealing with my debt:eek:

    TOTAL: £6,437 (04/01/2013) slowly but surely it is decreasing:D

    OMG! I can't believe that you were driving in Turners Hill last night! The roads there are country lanes nd rubbish at the best of times, let alone in the dark and snow. My hat goes off to you!!!
    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.
