set out to cycle to work in a full scale snow shower, of course it was bright sunshine by the time I got here - so my garb of jacket+fleece, waterproof trousers, reflective vest & balaclava was a tad OTT :erm:

- nice & snug & dry, though, must remember to renew the scotchguard on my shoes :D

That's nothing - after Mondays shenanigans, I nicked a snowplough :D . Then again, I did get a few funny looks when I drove it straight into a field - if you've got a snowplough, you might as well use it, eh ;)

Well it is still snowing here but does not seem to be laying. so even after a few hours it still looks like my last pic.

aww bless - you may need to think about having your battery properly charged up, bb31, it won't get much charge just pootling round town with all the lights & heaters on. :dozey:

It's been none stop now for nearly an hour. It looks about an inch thick.

There is lots of slush still under some of it around here but by morning I think it will be thick.

Just hope schools closed as lots of them were in Lincs and they are only down the road from N E Lincs.

We'll see what the morning bring when I get up.
