Something is about to hit Reading, but the radar shows rain/snow mix frown
Gentleman, I'm pleased to formally announce, "IT'S SNOWING IN COLD ASH...!" And about time too woohoo Will do a little bit of this driving if it settles properly. Good thick fluffy snowflakes coming in a timely fashion smile

Made it!!!! There is MASSES of snow here. Didn't need the chains, but the last 10k was very touch and go. Got upgraded to a B Max. They're not very economical - 1/4 tank to travel 110k...

Winter tyres rock in deep snow!!!
Excellent. Took a look at Les Saisies webcam earlier...superb snow dumping and there's more to come. Re' fuel consumption, this is quite normal for any car on winter tyres, on snow and at higher altitude.
