too warm for snow, too cold for rain..

wet ice falling from above at the moment.

we had our first flurry of snow this morning. Lasted about 15 minutes!

So far, it is the first time in 6 weeks that the weather has dropped cold enough for my Winter Tyres to be of any benefit whatsoever!!

damn i need to move somewhere colder! damn that gulf stream, mud is all we'll get here.

coxy, my winter tyres have only done about 50 miles

, tarmac just about cold enough now to turn them from jelly into rubber!

i might go a suicide drive into the hills just to test them out, did that by accident on saturday night in the iveco

the weight of the thing will only do so much to cut through the crap then it becomes a three ton sledge very quickly..

We also had about 15mins of snow this morning, but the roads and foot paths where bad with black ice!
Spose i should let the dog in, he's been out from half 8 this morning, and i'm froze after a 20 min walk home lol!
