    Well just be careful. With the sun today, total snowfall has melted back to about 6 inches. However we're due "heavy snowfall" - the stuff you were in before was just "light snowfall".

    "Crack of sparrows" I love it :) hopefully, Smashed, you're on main roads that are being kept clear? Some of the scenery you pass through must be fantastic.

    You'd hope so, but having said that, last winter, one of my many dicy moments was on the A1 (M). Mr Snowplough had been caught napping that day...

    Having said that, it's looking pretty good at the moment.

    Passing by said scenery is far preferable to passing through it...

    If you drive around a bit, you'll see plenty of examples of "the youth of today" who've never actually seen real snow who've passed through various bits of scenery, leaving car-shaped holes in it...

    I think we should leave photos on http://HowCrapaDriverAmI.com

    Just remains to be seen how many people click on that... ;)

    Feeling lousy, and no better. But I guess it means I don't have to go out... :D

    How are you? You getting much of the white and crispy global warming where you are?
