many peeps laugh at this old joke but my mate used to tell his missus this and she had a boot full of stuff in her astra she would even get up early to make a flask of soup. The real funny thing in all this is she worked under 2 miles from where they lived.

My lad said that his school will probably be **** cos nobody can get in. He lives 3/4 mile away in a pretty busy residential area. Certainly the students can get there.
 
I went to boarding school near Knighton in Shropshire, we were often snowed in and still had classes. Teachers made it in whatever. These days there's no dedication grrr
