Bl**dy snow....

Typical. I arrived back from ten days working in Switzerland yesterday looking forward to a little blat in the car. It was a bit cold this morning but I was nicely wrapped up so I thought I'd go anyway.
I got about twenty miles from home and what happens......A BLIZZARD. Thats just what I wanted to see...more BL**DY SNOW!!!x(
You could just see people in other cars thinking "Why is he driving that in the snow?"
Oh I'm so Angry I could throw the phone dow..........

RE: Bl**dy snow....

Hi Simon, the temperature here in Nigeria just touched 100*F this afternoon. Very nice, just a pity the humidity is 95%. Getting the local weather from home in East Yorkshire via my wife and she tells me it's grim. Well it is up north! I'll be home next week. I expect it will be cleared by then ... No driveway to clear Trigger

RE: Bl**dy snow....

your lucky, I was driving home after my nightshift and i could bearly get any traction in my hyundai coupe F2

The ABS decided it was just too snowy so that turned itself off, af to top it off i had visability of about 20 feet

I eventually gave up and let some air out my tyres and drove home on Squishy tyres

45 miles and 9hrs! x(

Spent 2hrs admiring the same building in St Albans! ;(

Is this what the government call 'integrated transport'? well they can stuff it.

Some people have been stuck on the M11 since 8pm last night! so they say on GMTV. What a joke.

Oh well, done it again!

Our courier was taking some tapes to London from here in Norwich last night, he left here 2100 last night, ended up stuck all night on M11 - the UK where nearly lost their fix of daytime television.

Cheers

RE: Bl**dy snow....

Unbelievable

A couple of hours of snow and the whole country almost grinds to a halt x(
It makes you wonder how they manage in places like Russia with their old Ladas, Skodas etc

Just a thought
