Re: Snow !

Re: Snow !
With all this snow, it will bring the best jokes around, Council will run out of grit, the railways will grind to a halt as the snow is not the right size and is causing problem's with the points.
Drivers will complain about breakdowns as batteries have gone flat overnight due to the freezing weather, transport will grind to a halt.
Good old Britain.

You mean that there is a single day in Scotland where it isn't raining or snowing?

Re: Snow !
Please tell me why is it when it snows some drivers leave their brains at home?
I.E. drive to fast, no lights, only clear a small patch from the windsreen.

Yes some drivers never seem to heed the warnings given out when we have severe weather.
