Default 1st Snow Fall Of The Year!

Just being snowing for a couple of hours up here in Glasgow. Great watching the BMWs struggle up the hills but to be honest these Bridgestone RE070 leave alot to be desired!

We knew that,as all you southerners are still posting on here,if it had been snowing you all would be hiding in your panic rooms,cuddling the twelve loafs of bread and 50 pints of milk you all would have panic bought after recieving a weather warning of 1-2 mm of snow

And the feckin snows all gone here now. The only decent snow we've had here since I got my Wintracs last winter was over a foot

Only things moving that day had Land Rover badges on them

LOL funniest thing I have read all day.

It is currently sunny here with blue sky, no signs of snow yet. This weather is seriously messing with the ski season! But I amnot complaining, the news said we can expect a few weeks of cold weather at the end of Feb / early March.

I was down cornwall in september,speaking to a young ish couple,they said it was shocking last year when the A30 was gridlocked and all the kids were trapped at thier schools,i appologised later,but when they said this i just laughed in there faces,and asked how they would go on if they got more then an inch of snow,if this is what happened when they got a gentle frost!

Yep, nice to see a whiteout.

Had to go out in the subaru, but last years memories are still there, so no "playing" for me.

Aye, i heard him (couldn't understand him).

Bucky is still big. I see it guzzled every w/end when we play poker, but then that kid (35) is a dick.

Snow, Disillusioned, Understeer, kerb, alloy. You can guess how the story went.

At least i got a few laughs from the wifey. Laughing that she's not the one to damage the wheels this time. Got the for new ones though
