SNOW....the white stuff
« on: December 05, 2012, 09:28:20 am »
Does anyone else have snow today and if so are you working in it, or what are you going to do ?

I knew when posting I cant afford any errors between now and the 21st It was a mistake  :-[

We had an inch or so overnight, mostly melted now though.

Working in it? Of course.

Had about 1/2 inch near Canterbury on to a wet road so it was a little slippy for a while, although it does appear to be thawing as fast as it laid. It will be fun if it freezes

Had about an inch of the stuff. Needed to travel 10 miles on the A127 normally a 10 minute journey, it took me over 2 hours as the traffic was so bad.  Still got all my work done though, but must admit I'm now glad to be home.

1  inch snow here this morning by 7.30 am.

Um'd and ar'd and decided to leave I think it was do-able but my daughters school was closed, so stayed off with daughter and mrs.

Pulled my 7 yr around on sleigh, had snow ball fight with her, i missed everytime ;)
She got me good ;D

90% of the snow had melted by late afternoon.

I'm out tomorrow fingers crossed we don't get heavy snow.

Managed to save a bit this year, not so stressed.

Could have gone out but risking a slip and some injury or a prang in the van ::)
Maybe better off at home ;)

Firstly Stuart thank you for making me laugh this early in the day ;D

Your reading it wrong, my guys worked yesterday , I was just asking about what other people were doing or if they had snow.

I was not asking for advice, no where in my post does it say please could you help or I need advice maybe my writing was confusing you if so sorry although I think we both know your trying badly to be a smart ass :)

How whilst your trying miserably trying to mock me does social media and snow have anything to do with each other really did make me laugh out loud. maybe your super intelligent and I missed the point being clearly stupid :(

For your information stuart, I'm not going to try to revolutionise your views merely helping other out with some information that will hopefully help them.

Where's the crime in that ?
