There's a fair bit here now. My Dad and a few friends aren't impressed as they're currently on the M20 after a weekend in Belgium. Firstly, they couldn't get on their chunnel as the one they were booked on was full, and then the train in front of theirs got stuck in the tunnel for some reason. Now they're back in England but the snow's getting bad apparently! |

A few flurries, but nothing as yet here in Worcester.  Just have to see what the overnight time brings. I'm fairly confident in snow, I goes to Scotland every January and my modern car(Skoda Fabia) has Traction Control, which helps.

Sorry Taff, I hate all this stuff on new cars that stops people using their own brains and quite often common sense!

I used common sense today, spent an hour getting nowhere in traffic at 4am, so turned round and went back to bed where Ive just had a lovely 'romantic' moment with the missus. I love the snow! |

The golf was properly gash on the roads today, all over the place, no grip and felt dangerous! just popped to the shops in the Ami6, Citroen knew what they were doing with that! No problems at all even down the ungritted country lanes with thick virgin snow on! Even the lowness wasnt a problem! |
