We heard you the first time, Marmite, but you're right!!!

If you'd said before I could have found a home for your indy - have you got it running again yet ?



without the drifts etc. I've got 12" on the ground round the house (the bottom 3" are solid ice)
the tin-tops only got 4" on the roof, but I have been driving it every day

Insa Turbo Mountains.



Low range, 4wd, no need for clearing snow



Although due to other peeps not having very good tyres, OR, driving come to that, its not worth getting it out!

11.30 this morning!

Heavy snow will return occasionally, says Dr Viner, but when it does we will be unprepared. "We're really going to get caught out. Snow will probably cause chaos in 20 years time," he said.
