    It's not the snow, it's the ice under it. Summer tyres have almost zero grip on ice, hence why our continental cousins mandate winter tyres for such conditions.

    Same here, although I sprayed antifreeze on the car windows before I went to bed, just to make sure I wouldn't get a coating of ice and could fulfill this week's polluting the planet quotum; north east NL, drove to central NL, no problems. According to the radio there are people stranded in their cars in northern France and ze authorities cannot 'andle zis, so they're asking people who live near motorways to rescue stranded motorists.

    Britain 'will gain from global warming' - Telegraph

    The report, by 30 international scientists for the European Commission, blah blah.

    Mike Hulme, a climate researcher at the University of East Anglia, blah blah.


    Hot hot hot, sunny dry and warm Britain.

    West Sussex:

    Blizzard, about a foot or two of snow in drifts, roads not gritted.

    Took me three hours to get from work to my digs last night. That's 6 miles.

    Not many people in the office this morning.
