Now I like snow. I'll go and actively seek it out if I have a car worthy of it. But tonight on the way home it was deadly. 4 - 5'' of soft fluffy stuff on top of sheet ice, even on the main roads. Now I am in a borrowed car at present and I'm respecting that, but pulled of the lanes onto the main Eccleshall to Loggerheads road at Wetwood, saw a cars headlights in the distance coming up Blackwaters Bank so I pulled out. Within 1/2 a mile 'he' was behind. In a P reg Ford Galaxy in White. Five yards distance would have been praising him. I was doing 45 to 50 and he even tried to overtake me but thought better of it. This absolute stupidness was endured for 2 miles and then the Co-Op hill was descended. He was that close I couldn't see his headlights. I went down in 2nd gear just letting the car 'bump' off it's revs and transmission. Had I stopped I'm not sure what I would have said to Al in the morning. But I know something, I would of got out and chinned the tw*t clean on, no questions. I WILL see him again.
I was still shaking half an hour later.
