sedith Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 It'll all be gone by tomorrow morning when the band of rain comes in from the west Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gimp27 Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 But it was forecast yesterday for today and they could have checked out the forecast before setting off to work. Your not wrong. We are over in Sheff this week, and knew there was a chance of snow on Tuesday when we set off. Its all well and good, but if you dont need to travel, then dont.

Skink Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 lawsom34 - not sure now, we have at least 4" here and its seriously slippery (even with decent tyres and technique) even though I have plenty of bad weather driving experience wouldn't be out and about tonight by choice Gritters aren't going to clear this, we need a plough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mafya Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Just been out in Shirecliffe, managed ok myself as my golf is a 4motion one but the amount of idiots who just stop in the road without consideration to how others will pass them is mind boggling.

mafya Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Is that the 4WD version? The 2.8 v6 one yes although it is possible to lose control if you are not careful and get overconfident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
