    SNOW!!

    WOW, a serious amount of snow so far, in some places its almost to my f****g knees!!

    Just been for a walk, reminds me of when it snowed this bad when i was a kid!

    I took a screen shot of my CCTV so far:-



    Bottom two are being battered by snow drifts, so visibility is poor

    Why do I all ways miss out on the snow.
    We got your amount of snow in rain.
    Car was saying 8 degrees when I got in it bout an hour ago.
    Not a happy chappy, I was hopping to be dragged round the field by the dogs again.

    And I am loving the snow! But only because it is a Sunday and the roads are clear of other vehicles. All the old folk are out with their shovels, whilst I go past them having fun spinning my wheels in the snow.

    Worst snow is when it is a weekday and it is rush hour on the A1 or M25. when it becomes absolute chaos as the looney tunes that can't drive are struggling to move off after they have stopped on a slope.

    Its funny how as soon as there is snow everybody becomes friendly. I just walked to the shop and every person I passed smiled.
    Usually, here in London at least, its eyes down and you're classed as a mentalist if you smile at someone you don't know.

    It should snow every day.

    Why is your phone holder on the passenger window?
    Do you film the faces of the angry and yet slightly stunned drivers as a wide eyed, blond mohawk, coal chewing angry drawf over takes them while he rocks forwards and back wards on the steering wheel yelling "FASTER YOU PILE OF **** THATS SLOW BUT HAS A BETTER COLOUR AND CONDITION BODY WORK THAN MY BABY FKN BLUE UNMAPPED S3. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MOLASSES!!"

    That's actually quite funny, however points to note:

    1 the phone holder is central
    2 the mohawk is three years grown out

    But I agree the rest is probably bang on...... You God damn cider swigging, picnic blanket carrying, burgundy derv driving, colour coded extinguisher yielding, chicken waxing bumpkin

    Ahhh yeah, now that I look at it in a bit more detail it does look likes its blocking a good chunk of your vision of the road in front of you.
