    Auntie Smashed is now on the Tia Maria and cokes, If I am going to have a headache I might as well make it worthwhile.

    Thank you Beanie, much appreciated x x x x

    Wols bedroom is now ready and waiting for her for when she comes up here, with curtains and the bed all clear of donations x x x x

    Might even think about getting the tree out and decorated. Now, where are my ladders x x x

    Yep, I have. My car is fairly buried now. It's in a sheltered spot, so gets no drifts. It's about half-way up the wheel so that'll be about 14 inches or so.

    And it's snowing at the moment. With thunder...

    Haven't seen any lightning yet though.

    Still loads of global warming out there. DS at home today as school shut - what a sod that we'd got up at ten to seven, though! OH had a works meeting cancelled so that was the two of them under my feet today driving me nuts. Looking out of the window I see a large lump of snow on the drive, vaguely shaped like my car. DS has been going out every day with tape measure to see how much snow has fallen - it's about a foot deep in our garden at the moment, and more still to come. Game of I Spy, anyone? I spy with my little eye something beginning with S......

    Snowfall is a thing of the past because of global warming. Hence, this is not snow - it is global warming.

    Simples... ;)

    A bit more. My car has 19" wheels and add a few for the tyre. Not sure what size wheels yours will have.
