Woke up to a small amount here on Mount Brackley, can just see the grass tips through, so probably about 1-2cm

Traffic backed up on main drag into town,road like a skidpan.
No buses,no trains schools al closed and still snowing.

Lazy bloody teachers again  >:(

I have to rather well go to work when the weather is bad - christ, I used to climb telegraph poles in this weather (and yes I have had white-outs).

[size=8]Saying that, I am working from home today, but only because its Monday[/size]

Total disaster here. 6 inches or more on the ground. Tried to take mrs. KW to work. MX5 was the vehicle of choice given that the Omega was under 6 inches of snow and the MX was garaged. Got 1/2 a mile up the A31 before we decided it was a very bad idea. Roads totally untreated. Barely enough traction to move and even then the back end was all over the show. Driving the Omega would have been a very bad idea. :-X

Oh, the joys of being a threee rear wheel drive car family. ;)
