well, the suns out today stevie, roofs melting into wet puddles all over the place, me gardens showing signs now of two or more days dogs doo doo`s :eek:
(better find that ****e shovel and get harvesting i spose)

hope your areas had plenty of ECC gritting, including those norty norty hills in Col town centre :)

I been out already today and whats left on the ground is really just white to clear slush now, cept in the roads which is very wet & ****e brown and its a disco killing mix of eveything you dont want in your chassis & panels.
soon time fer the BIG ramps and pressure washer.. ;)

We had a good 6 inches of snow fall here on Sunday, but its thawing rapidly today. If its not too cold tomorrow, I've got a few jobs to do on the motor. Nothing major, just refitting the auxiliary drive belt and adjusting the hand brake. Found a new hole today at the bottom of the drivers side A post, so that's another job on the ever growing list. :(

Colchester council have been as slack as ever with the gritting. At least they are consistent. Main roads are OK, just, but I'm out in Great Horkesley and the back roads are 'challenging' :)

Same here mate, absolutely no snow at all, go 20/30 miles in any direction and you can find it, but nothing at all here. even tonight there is an amber alert for snow close by, but they reckon all we will get is more rain and some sleet!!

Still at least we won't suffer from the flooding afterwards :D:D

If you go 10 miles inland they are having no end of snow, I can see loads on the hills inland, but I think with being right on the coast we're not going to get much, if any:rolleyes::rolleyes:
