No show would mean a lifetime ban if I was the judge;);) Good luck with it anyway.
 
Hi from Parkmore, Dufftown, Banfshire. We have about 2ft of snow and in our 18th day of snow (not continous) - built a 7ft snowman - we have to clear our path every day - the snow is falling so heavy at the moment that the snow ploughs cant keep the road clear neither can we get back to the Western Isles because of conditions. We hope to get home by the weekend.

We now have 3ft of snow and more to come

No seriously roads are horrendas/ horrid

Keep safe everyone don't take risks if you don't have to.


Lenny are you up in your crane whats the snow like up there????:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
 
Wee bit of snow in Stirling last night but nothing like you're having in N England. We've still got the stuff that fell 2 weeks ago - all frozen solid now. Main roads OK but side streets and country roads still covered in solidified/hard packed snow.
 
It must be bad in Lancashire. My trip down to The Awning Company scheduled for Friday has been cancelled. Only the receptionist has made it in to work today.

Not a lot of fresh snow in Gateshead for the last 24 hours but the sky looks full now.

Been snowing most of the morning here, heaviest fall of the winter, and by the look of the wind you'll be getting it before too long.

 
Cold down here in deepest devon but no snow yet,well none to write home about anyhow.
Make sure you all feed the birds.My garden is like an aviary!
 
About 2 inches of snow here in Gloucestershire so far today and more on the way by the looks of it. Not heard of any issues with the M5 yet.

No snow in mid kent yet ( 5pm ) but it doesn't look good - our power usually goes when we get a lot of snow. Ah well, there's plenty of gas in the MH so if necessary we can cook and get warm in there!

Still NO snow -it's not fair -- my toboggan is going rusty!

Its not you Polly, I personally think it is a an attack against the male species.

It seems they are measurement deficient ...i.e thinking 6 inches is 12 etc :eek:

Man it seems is measurementally ( new word ) challenged.

25.4 millimeteres to an inch my dear ...I hope this helps
