Andy,

Tell your wife if had set off at 5 instead of having a lie in till 6:45 she might have got to school on time :p

Then again, perhaps not :lol:

I think you may get a robust response here Medders, I don't think he is in a good mood.:cry:

opps miss read post:lol:

I think you might be right :lol: I'll take cover :blush:

Had 5 or more inches of snow near Blyth and still going, Rangey and Tractors are finally in their element now :thumbsup:

Hopefully there is plenty of snow around the Forest of Dean tomorrow. Going to watch Brother testing there new 4wd rally car for this season. :thumbsup:

Not looking good for the meeting on Sunday then James :thumbdown:.

No :( will keep you posted..

Good mood ?
I've had a great day, once the missus got back without pranging the car !
Me and the kids played out in the snow till they started to go blue :)

On the 'Landi' topic, here's my pals one. it's a 'proper' landi, cos it's got a winch !

my mums boyfriends one is similair to that, big chunky tires, come up too my waist im just over 6ft tall lol, got all the steering gaurds, homemade bumpers,snorkel and stuff, when the deep snow was here last febuary or whenever, he went out and started towing, he said it was cause he wanted to help people, i no he did it casue he wanted to be childish in the snow, driving on the parks and such to get round traffic:thumbsup:

That looks the dogs I bet the tyres are a fortune, it would still be crap on ice though.

Its not a proper landy because its clean :lol: does it go offroad? it looks immaculate, very cool.. we had one like that but a 110 and someone nicked it on christmas day :mad:

I can assure you he uses it properly. He goes on these weekend 'landy' events, where you get stuck and stuff on purpose, just so you can play with your winch !

Piccy was taken in the summer, he cleaned it up for the photo.

Proper Landy drivers don't need a winch....:p:woot::woot:

And mine always gets dirty :)

I was only kidding, like Guy Ritchie then, did you see that on top gear?
It would have been a pricey bit of kit that landy when new ..

I've been out doing some digging - it was ace.

Mikey...Im in Glos and we have had several inches so far been snowing all afternoon...

BBC weather said south to expect between 30-40cm overnight !!!! sledge to work tomorrow

Anyway not all bad, Just been out in the garden with kids...Snow man built, job done !! :thumbsup:

Only took an hour to get home from Mansfield, normally takes 30 mins and full credit to the boss he kicked us out just right so I got home just as the light faded and it started to snow heavy again.

My commiserations to all you poor sods with rear-drive and no traction control, I suppose all that niceness in the summer isn't worth bugger all on the one day it's like this. Loads of Lexus's (Lexii?), Bimmers and Mercs abandoned by the side of the road on anything that resembles a gradient.

Followed a 116 for about a mile that was actually crabbing along at about 10mph wheelspinning like mad with it's arse-end trying to make a break for the hedge while the laydee driving it was doing her best Markku Alen impression. I and about 5 others behind me overtook her in the end as it was too painful to watch and she looked absolutely terrified. Bless.
