Apparently there are two snowploughs stuck in drifts outside the town, both were heading in opposite directions on opposite roads so that leaves one exit road out of a possible three and that’s blocked by drifts, nae traffic has been moving on the roads since 5pm t’night and it is now -4 outside and freezing hard, still snowing and blowing a hoolie though.
It’s all terribly exciting 😉 , we don’t usually get this much snow as we’re on the coast, i’m trying to get my mate talked into taking the motocross bikes out t’night wi my 1200lumen C&B seen lights on the front, i doubt the police will be worrying bout an unlicensed motocross bike on the deserted roads as the snow is very deep and nothing is moving anywhere, prob too deep for the bikes if i’m honest but it’ll be a laugh if nowt else.
My mate in the hills has had to fire up his diesel generator as his leccy’s went out, took him 30 mins to dig his way to the barn which is 30 yards from his house, he said the snow drifts are above his head – that’s what you get for staying 800ft up an eastern facing Galloway hillside.
