No snow in this part of the country, but Mrs chim666 & I had to go for a chilly roof-off New Years Day blast.

I know - I really should have had the roof off but my co driver complains that she gets cold ears.

Only on the other car but Vic took it to work.

Gentle throttle instead.

I suppose if your car was tucked up in a garage you'd have called yourself 'Normalbadger'??

Glad I was in the polo today. Must have been another 6" snow in the last 24 hours.

I was out in my car today - thankfully the Discovery and not the TVR! By 6pm the roads up here have turned from lovely crisp snow to sheet ice!

We were up your way at Curbar Gap yesterday. Good bit of snow on the road that comes down past Gardoms then up the hill to the gap. We were about the only non 4x4 up there.
