    Had a look out at about 5am, clear sky, but cold.

    Left work at 7am, car covered in white stuff.

    Not fun driving home accross country roads, inc loads of sharp bends and 3 humback bridges, while being completely knackered!!!

    A bit of a slide in the car park in work, the rest of the way home was carefull and mostly uneventfull.
    Untill I got to my home town, had to turn right over a bridge, not overly tight, driving on idle but was tired and in 3rd, when I should have been in 2nd.

    Que me sliding back and forth between metal barriers on one side and cars waiting at the lights on the other side, at least 5 corrections, but thankfully The Monster did as she was told.
    And all survived unscathed.

    Not fun for a few seconds.

    Travelled the final mile to find the estate with some nice virgin snow covering the lot.

    Time for SLEEP, wake me up in April.....

    Had a bit of fun in the snow today. Went to get some sledges for the boys & TC got turned off. Kids loved the drifting action in the empty car park

    The gritters better get out soon Cause I can get all 4 wheels spinning in a straight line on the main roads.
    The mighty Leedsnum has gone but the Airtrek mods will soon fill this space

    No such luck for us. It rained for about an hour then sub-zero temps during the night. Everything is solid ice now
