I wants one of these

Changing the brake pads on the car outside the house.

It must have seemed strange as seemingly the whole street came out to stare at me. Dancing in the middle of the road naked would probably have attracted less gawping.

I’m not talking about very snowy – I just mean when there is moderate snow and untreated roads. With regard to the RWD situation – my tactic is to fill the boot with everything heavy that I own – along with a bag of rock salt and a shovel.

Without wishing to sound like a boastful arse, I do know how to drive in snow – I’m pretty experienced at it, however every advantage helps!

I was in the shops earlier & today’s Express had an equally alarmist snow headline. up to 6 inches of snow by Thursday! allegedly.

I have claimed twice from them with absolutely no hassle whatsoever – they pay out directly to the vets – and I am in the middle of a 3.6K claim from them at the moment (fingers crossed).

Seriously though, I would definitely recommend them.

Sod that!

Must remember to take the face-rubbing equipment to work tomorrow for the benefit of my Geordie colleague :D

Just been giving it a stroke, and reassuring it that I’ll look after it in this bad weather….

Well I’ve just noticed an upended plant pot in the garden, but to be honest I suspect it to be the work of a severely retarded small cat.

Do I need to tether the cats down?

It’s only doing this because my boiler is broken. Sodding freezing in Chateau Mule ATM.

You lucky lad. Look after it.

Thanks – but technically it’s lady :D

I now own my home. Outright.

It was a very very very lovely birthday present.

That’s why it feels so strange. Good – but strange.
