snow is shovelled from the front of the garage and from the end of the drive where it joins the road. Its been raining and its melting a bit. I went and turned the engine over - no probs there. Decided not to get it out of the garage until tomorrow morning. According to the forecast it should be thawing. Back to being disgustingly dirty then! :dry:

Looks like the low temps are at an end for us here ...... forecast is at 0 or above except for Wednesday when it goes down to -1 deg

 

amen to that! never thought i'd be glad to see it say 1 degree on my car thermometer!

snowed over night :) decided i would just keep going on the drive this morning, sod the traffic on the road :lol: worked a treat, some skidding but got out first time. on the fresh snow in the work car park was a different story, 0mph uncontrolled slow motion slide round some bends in the middle of the pedestrians was interesting, seeing the panic on their faces even thought they can walk faster :lol:

Made it to work ..... still a bit slippy in places ........ hope everyone's OK:)

My car would barely move so sent the missus out on a recon mission. She tried to get to work, got about 500yrs in an hour and came home. Now both working from home - again :yawn:

half my village was defrosted more or less but THE OTHER HALF......JEEZ - massive peaks of slush that had frozen solid. Normally you can get two cars by each other (just) but there was only one set of tracks down the middle which meant when something came the other way you had to venture onto the rock hard ice - it scraped the bottom of the car in places...........not nice. Was a bit better tonight on the way home.
