Rain here also Linell and it's a right down pour at the moment, better than snow in my eye's though.

You were right Linell with your forecast of more snow , it colder here after 4.0pm and came really dark an the next time I looked out the rain had turned to snow , and I thought How right Linell was about it coming back.

Not too much of a hunch there Annie, shame someone is not taking any bets on more snow, we could make a fortune.

Sincerely hope not, got stuck in the gridlock yesterday morning, took me 2hours to do a 25 min journey, and couldn't even turn round and come home cos it was just as bad going in the other direction.

What a nightmare Cid, poor you, hope you don't get anymore of it today. I hear that it is travelling up from Wales and heading north today, hopefully it will just miss Staffordshire

No I wasn't in a traffic jam cos I couldn't turn off anywhere. I was definately locked in a great big grid. All roads in and out, up and down, and side to side were packed with cars going nowhere. Used loads of diesel just to keep the car warm and the heated seat going so that my derrier was nice and cosy
