Freezing fog now after the snow stopped. Had a wee bit of fun out in the street as me and a few others done the road as everything was getting stuck. M8 looks mad on the TV.

A friend of ours took 8 1/2 hours to get home from Glasgow to Motherwell last night!!!!
ouch!
I agree..a feel as if I'm the only person who is actually mobile! had no problems in the snow at allOriginally Posted by Mini Ecosse
Attempted to go to Glasgow today.
Go to bottom end of Loch Lomond before being turned back by police, a lorry had overturned.
Boy were we impressed with the mini today
No snow tyres and it behaved impeccably, in fact was doing better than some of the 4x4's and SUV's.
Snowed in Alford yesterday for the 12th day in a row. Really pissed with it now.
Feet were made to fit car pedals. If we were meant to walk, we'd have pogo sticks for legs
Colleague at work took 9.5 hours to get from East Kilbride to Bothwell. She left work at 3.30pm and got home at 01.00am
A sore one or what!!!!

Got up to go to work this morning to find it was -10 and the wee Pug was a block of ice welded to the driveway! I waited till it was light and dug myself a path out of the driveway, it was so cold the metal bits of the shovel got stuck to my gloves! I think I managed with only a couple of heart attacks.
Got down to the shops in Larkhall to post some stuff for my Dad and get provisions. Side roads pretty awful, and car parks hilarious - full of big fat-tyres cars with no grip whatsoever - the 106 just drove past them, bless it. Will try to get to work in Hamilton tomorrow... fingers crossed. It's not just the getting out that's the problem, it's the getting back later when everything freezes up again.
Roll on Springtime, I like a bit of snow at Christmas, but this isn't fun at all. Take care everybody!
