    There is already quite a bit of snow here in Birmingham, it is snowing hard, and there is plenty more snow predicted. It also looks pretty breezy out there. We could be in store for the closest thing I've seen to a blizzard since I've lived in England.

    Best wishes,
    Bob

    Panic stations here in Hastings. The mere mention of a potential heavy snowfall was enough to cause chaos at the pumps, milk flew off the shelves and the school demanded we pick our children up at 11:45. I let one of my assistants stay at home today rather than risk him sitting at his desk worrying about getting home or being stranded and being non-productive. I hope it bloody well does snow heavily now.

    That is a singularly unimpressed Rabbit. Give him a coffee for the love of Jeebus, it's snowing.

    Where about's in Brum are you Bob?

    Got to work and back very slowly in the BMW with all season tyres, got home and couldn't get up the slope of the drive as the snow was too deep and gettin stuck in the wheel arches and grroves of the tyre causing traction problems. Even folk tring shovel and helping to push didn't have much luck. I ended up getting one to drive while I shoved the car with a bit of help from his wife and got most of way up.

    Well, I don't know how many centimetres we've had, but I can tell you that tonnes has fallen up in this neck of the woods.

    Edit: That'll make nonsense whatsoever, because I posted it on he wrong thread.

    It's snowing in London

    I took the wife's Toyota in for a service today and they let me take the GT86 out in this weather! I managed not to spin it but nearly lost it on my way back in to the car park!

    Still very white here in Bristol. Kids making the most of the hill over the road with their sledges. Can't get the car of the drive, so looking forward to a five mile walk to my local Co-Op.
