still snowing heavily here,,   

i have to go and collect no4 daughter from her school show....    up a bastard great big , probably ungritted hill....   (Arnold's Way , off cumnor hill,   for the locals.....  )   this should be "entertaining"


one thing i am sure of,   the 3.2 Mv6 is nothing like as good in snow as either of my previous 3.0 elites. 


wish me luck.....   

take some newspapers with you.. good luck :y

Started snowing gently while I was doing a job in Harlow. A120 near Stanstead was blocked so thought I'd pop across the A414 and do some marketing on the way back. Started snowing in anger and in the time it took me to pop into a garage and have a quick chat (5 mins max) it was starting to settle on the van :o Decided to just carry on towards home after that ::)

Not been snowing here yet (fortunately) but is forecast and Essex seems to be getting it already ::) Another fun day tomorrow I'm sure ::)

Oh... And whoever said FWD is better in the snow has never driven my van :o :o It's dreadful :'( I'd rather be in the RWD Omega any day ;)

We have an old 3 lane road with large grass verges that has been closed to through traffic and by passed. Used to have loads of fun on that years ago with my Mk1 Cortina GT, just throw it around, the worst that could happen was that you got stuck in the grass verge :) Like the large car park idea as well, done that a few times over the years, as long as you know it is one without kerb stones dividing it up.... :D :D :D
