Feckin' snow

[SandyDown]

expat, quite,

winter tyres are equally at home in the wet

fantastic grip

gentlemen, the fact remains, no matter how much snow the UK gets each year, you and your families would be safer in your cars in the winter months if you had a second set of wheels with winter tyres on your car, the cost is not so much as you only use them for a few months each year, but the grip and the safety are second to none, just because it is not the law does not mean it is not good for you

Is winter tyres the official name for these kind of extra grip tyres, I mentioned winter tyres once to the worker at kwick-fit and they didn't know what I was talkign about

I was going to ask how winter tyres differ from 'normal' tyres but Googled it myself.

Linky for anyone interested.

that could be right - e.g. I can never order a coke !! I've been trying to order diet cocke for years, but waiters or people in the shop look so shocked that I actually asked them if I can have a diet cocke, and they all answer with 'huh??' I get fed up and ask for 'Coca Cola' then they understand.

One day I was so annoyed and my daughter was with me - I told her what's going on why does everyone looks so shocked when I order a diet cocke.. she then turned around and said, mum you are a foreigner, did you ever hear a foreign woman ordering a coke .. she repeated what I said and it sounded like ' Do you have a c0ck?? can I have a large /small C0ck please' !!

anyway - my daughter's advice is to stick to ordering a pepsi !!

question is folks,

are you going to put yours and your family's safety first and invest in a
set of winter tyres ?

My Michelin Alpin's are fantastic.
