Grit is not magic guys! If it's going to snow hard and settle, it's going to settle. In some cases, grit actually makes it worse!

problem isnt the snow, its the compacted ice UNDER the snow that wouldnt be there had it been gritted.

Can remember last time it snowed, did 70 up the motorway to Basingstoke then had issues getting to the the car park. Once in I had a good drift session.

Not always true, the grit can easily be washed away or just be covered by the ice packed under the snow if it's a couple inches deep...I found that out a couple of years ago.

Photoshop is better than breaking my inferior camera (inferior as it's a low model, not 'cause it's a Nikon

).

Slight cloud, mostly sunshine here in Guildford...shame it's freezing cold!

Well, the dog enjoyed it

InvaderGIR · 2 Dec 2008 at 10:54

I want snow...I really didn't feel like going to work today. Problem is, I use buses and trains, which will most likely keep running even if it snows.

Firestar_3x · 2 Dec 2008 at 10:55

Tell that to the person from work who's stuck on the train because we've had a bit of snow.

Public transport sucks!

Problem is getting to them, the traffic round here was a nightmare so took the day off instead.

It's a 2 min walk to the bus, then a 2 min one to the station, and the roads are very busy ones, so they'll get gritted if it's likely to snow.

Having said that, I checked the forecast and both where I live and where I work are looking at sun, rain and fog, that's it.

I don't get it, how come all you guys around Manchester have snow, yet in Liverpool it's just wet and cold

Dunno, we have about 3 to 4 inches here. The main roads are still awful and still no sign of gritters.

It's great how as soon as we have a bit of snow half the UK takes the day off.

Well I have taken it as an owed study day, thought that it was better than rocking in at 11.

it's because we're not prepared for it. I'm going in as soon as I can but if i can't physically get there what do you expect us to do
