    Its started! Quick… get yourself to the shops and stock up with the essentials!!! Bread, milk, sausage rolls, pepperami’s and cheesy wotsits!

    Or sit back and hope its ‘proper’ snow so we can all go sledging and building snowmen at the weekend! 😀

    Side roads with a covering in Milngavie. Snowing heavily right now. Local main roads were distinctly ungritted coming home from work at 4am Always good getting home before the snow. Numerous crashes across the country in the morning rush hour according to Radio Scotland.

    The evening commute along the a77 cycle path really will be fun, cycling in fresh snow is great. Hope you’ve packed the snow socks Iain 🙂

    Consider yourself lucky you don’t need to enter North Lanarkshire at any point.

    Same weather, considerably more incompetent council.

    Every time it snows it’s the same. Crossing the border from any neighbouring authority into NL is like entering Mordor. 🙁

    You mean that, after all this time, there really has been a Mordor?

    Nah. It was merely a comparison between the two.

    One’s a dismal, depressing wasteland populated by evil , subhuman monsters who speak a strange, guttural language.

    The other one is Mordor, which has less snow and more opportunity for mountain biking

    WET, COLD N WET…..

    Wetter than an Otters Pocket etc.

    Raining so hard my weather station rain gauge has broken and reads 0mm even though it’s ankle deep out side. This could be due to spider webs or bird poo in the collector.

    Now settling. Still wouldn’t go riding in it though. Wet snow on sloppy ground.

    Joe Cocker usually pops round and clears our drive.

    Love an evening with Joe, talking about kites and getting him to do his Broski Beat covers.

    Not seen him for a bit, can’t wait.
    He should be on the phone anytime now.

    I have some bad news.

    Joe Cocker has been stuck in traffic due to a rogue snowflake landing on the M11.

    The army has been called.

    It was snowing in Birmingham when I left the Nec earlier, it gradually turned to rain as I headed back down south though.

    Probably be the only snow I see all year 😆

    Where’s this snowverdose we’ve been promised. There’s a bit here in Macclesfield, but nothing major. Wanted to go sledging as I have the day off 🙁

    Just had to chisel Mrs M’s car windows free of ice. This is apparently a blue job. Light smattering over the Downs but crowborough and Tunbridge Wells have 4-5 inches.
