I can't believe that!! Not this group, someone all ways has something to say!!!!!!
I'm here! Eventually. We had a sudden snow storm at 5am after a big freeze the night before. Mark has been ill again but had to go to work (no idea why- no one is on camp- good time to invade, me thinks).
So we battled through the snow. I say we, because after clearing the Renault it wouldn't start
poor thing. I needed to get to the shops and over to the rescue centre. So we drove out to the camp and I carried on back into town, did my shop in the supermarket near Sarah's place, got round to her by 10am when the sun began to thaw the roads. Collected Clint again and 'Fluff-bum' who has no fur (well a little) stopped at the pet store where there is a special offer on, got home, unpacked everything. Fed everyone, including me and Snowy (bless him he got up just so to complain about the noise). Mark phoned to say he could finish work at 1pm. Then we sat in the front window having tea and toasted teacakes watching idiot drivers try to take the corner past our house. 2 BMW's and a new Honda didn't make it and landed in the neighbours wall (not that we saw anything, you understand, no one in the road gets on with this man).
Now I'm not good at snow and ice but I drove 35 miles in it today including a 1:7 hill and survived, so are BMW and Honda drivers bad?
It was great to see one BMW wheel spin (I never knew they were rearwheel) past the junction then piroite to look as if he made it into the junction only to carry on the wheel spin into the kerb, over it and past the lamp-post and on into Mr Grumpy's wall

I wish the Renault had started, it would have be so much less scary on those skinny tyres.
Clint has gone to bed with a hot water bottle (hope he is ok out in the shed with Bertie next door) and 'Fluff-bum' (must get another name!) is munching through a pile of hay in the hallway
