    winter tyres would have been pretty pointless

    I would never waste my money on such expensive follies which for the majority of the time are inappropriate for our climate, we all know that the vast majority of the UK doesn't grind to a halt when there is snow, be it half a micron or otherwise.

    I threw floormats under the tyres, job done :)
    Then filled the dips in the pavement!
