Not the POS golf that I bought for £100, my Astra, takes a good 10 minutes to warm up.
My £100 golf wouldn’t start 2 days after I got it

Even my old Yaris could warm up in about 3mins and that doesn't even have heated seats.
03:30 and a light covering in Edinburgh but even before the snow had fallen our clowncil decided that the schools need to be closed today. I also note that some headmasters elswhere have not only banned the throwing of snowballs but actually playing in the snow at all which also includes the building of snowmen.
The cite health and safety regulations but it is their extremely weird interpretation of the legislation. We complain about kids not getting enough exercise or spending too much time in front of the TV or playing computer games yet then do not allow them to have fun by playing in the snow.
I appreciate that scookscare in a difficult position but this is invariably down to parents quick to blame the schools if little Johnny gets as much as a paper cut.

Yeah but it also happens a lot more frequently over there, not so extreme as -40’c but they are better equipped for it.
Yup second night in a row they've not been gritted here - when we actually have some icy surfaces and albeit very thin but an actual layer of snow nothing - when its dry and barely cold enough for a frost they are out there spreading it like its going out of date :s

Another few inches for me last night (snigger). Planning to work from home today....girlfriend's Kia seemed unfazed by it all, so I could take it to get into the office, but if Google maps is anything to go by everyone else is having trouble.
@TonyTurbo78 you were right - the closer we get the more the snow seems to dance around us and completely avoid this area. It was supposedly hammering down from 6am tomorrow until well into Friday, now we might not see much at all according to the BBC.
