Anyone? The poor girl was hidden this morning! having cleared her off, she started first time no worries:) ventured out in her too, bravely, she moved off fine in standard tyres, round the corner, reversed and brought her back round.. then a loud screeching!:eek: wheel spinning all over the place. A nioce gentleman came and asked if i'd like some help, Smuggly, "unless you have a stonking great 4x4, i think i'll try some more and perhpas give up... 5 mins later what appears.. chunky Pajero donned with winch. hooked her on and got towed back to where she was parked.. for where she'll stay untill the weather returns to normallity.

EDIT: Pic added

Formula 91 was white this morning.....well whiter than usual :rolleyes:.
I left her at home today and took the Landy instead. I figured if it snowed as much as it is forcast to today, I wouldn't find the Panda in the car park later :(
 
Snow?????.....Quite a bit here!!!!!....:eek: More snow to come...so Bianca could disappear completely!!!

Now I seem to remember I did warn you about that;)
Pretty glad I've got a day off here too

the 'void' in the snow next to the panda is where the wife had to go out this morning. Well annoying as she has a big Subaru legacy, just the thing except the back diff is out of commission so no 4wd:doh:
 
Left for work at 6.00 this morning, got to within 5 mins of the site at 8.30 only to get a phone call that the sites been closed for the day. The only thing that made the 60mile return journey fun was the chance for some hooning about in the snow.

Yeeeeeeeaaaaah!!!! :D

Glad everyone's having fun, I've got the day off and any chore that requires driving is getting done today... I've been yanking the handbrake up and sliding around all over the place; we've only got an inch or so here so it's just about fun.... Bring on more snow!!

Looks like it's gonna get seriously slippery tonight, if all the slush freezes and there's a few more inches of snow dropped on top then the recovery vans will be out in force... Anyone got spiked tyres?! :D

Have fun if you've got a 4x4 otherwise take care!! All the best seasonal wishes, Luke. (y)
 
Just back from starting Manda up. Threw her around the car park a bit and took her out on the open road to try and shift some of the snow. It didn't work so gave up and put her back in the snow drift that is the car park.(y)

:spin:Decided it was a bit too good to miss, so went up into the hills where no normal car could go!!

I think I dissapointed some of the locals who were enjoying watching cars sliding down the hill I live on - they all stood watching as I drove off in a boringly straight line........... :spin:
