A lot of times, Wardens seem to err on the side of actually giving a ticket then let the driver who receives the ticket appeal it.

If they didn't, for the next week at least, it's on iPlayer.

Re: Snow !
Tiniest, teensiest bit of snow this morning. All gone now and just the bitter cold to contend with.

Re: Snow !
Just a very light dusting in Winnersh, but my road still has over 2cm of compacted snow making it like a skating rink as the council do not treat it.

No snowfall here since about 6.00 PM yesterday. However, like you Ken, the council haven't seen fit to grit and thus no bin or recycling "Operators" have bothered to make an appearance. Still, no change there when the weather is inclement. Makes one wonder why Council Tax payments are so high  .

Re: Snow !
It beggars belief.
An inch of snow here and the schools are closed, soon they will be closing the schools when it rains.

Re: Snow !
Temperatures are forecast to plunge to a numbing MINUS 13C this week as an icy blast blows in from France, bringing up to 10cm of fresh snow and blizzard conditions.

Re: Snow !
What is it with numptys that think it is legal to just clear snow from the windscreen, and not bother with lights, roof & other windows.
Then there's Mr BMW who drives at 80+ on the outside lane of the motorway, thats not completely snow free.

To be fair seeing Mr. BMW driver after he's been completely unable to park his rear wheel drive car in the tiniest bit of ice and snow is always the highlight of my winter.

Re: Snow !
saw a car today that had just cleared a hole in the windscreen to look out of the rest of the car was covered in snow. Shame the police don't pull up more drivers like this

Re: Snow !
Well, it has now snowed more or less non-stop for 36 hours, but for most of the time it has been very light and the temperature is slightly above freezing, so there's a slight melt happening at the same time. We've got about 3 inches on the ground. Only half a mile from here there's almost nothing to speak of, but we're higher up the hillside than most of our neighbours and only on the very edge of the snow showers affecting central Scotland today. It's supposed to get 'worse' tonight, apparently, so we shall see what the dawn brings.
The school bus was replaced with a Land Rover this morning, which didn't quite make up for the loss of a potential day off.
