Britain during the Winter of 2009!

Tio be honest I didn't use the car in the latest bad weather - I walk most places anyway. Terry went to work on his bike but he said some of the idiot drivers were nearly running him off the road and coming too close. Joseph's school has over 1000 pupils and over 100 teaching staff and yet the local authority refused to grit the road to the school which is well used but treacherous. It is an accident waiting to happen as it is a steep hill with twists and turns. I agreed with the schools decision to close in the circumstances - better that than one of the students being killed by a skidding car.

I can gree with you on that Stephanie,I like walking as much as possible,especially when there is 48 inches of snow on the ground!!

No worries for you then Rick, you still have 24 inches or more above it!!

Spoke to my cousin the other day, she lives in Canada and can't understand what the fuss is about over here! its 8 ft drifts, and -25!!!   ouch!!
