[staceyb]

Better get the mutts trained as huskies sooner than later then.

[Andy Mac]

it's global warming...erm... oh... Bugger..

[Lois]

No doubt it will be a tiny sprinkling which will in turn cause the country to shut down. It's a bit o' water - get on with it!!!

infact just checked both weather.co.uk and the bbc and neither are showing snow here at all.

MetOffice said:

Valid for Wed 1 Mar 2006 to Fri 10 Mar 2006 Cold or very cold at first with a mixture of clear or sunny spells and scattered sleet or snow showers. The showers more especially over north and east facing coastal areas, extending further inland at times, and perhaps also affecting exposed western promontories. Some heavy showers are likely in the east with several cm of snowfall possible, especially on high ground, whilst any accumulations elsewhere are likely to be slight. The showers dying out through the period allowing a more generally dry interlude to develop but becoming increasingly cloudy and unsettled from the west or southwest later with outbreaks of rain preceded by a spell of snow. Temperatures gradually recovering to near or even a little above average, except perhaps in the northeast where they may stay a little below normal.

You know what I mean!
Last bit of snow allowed me to do a bit of 'weave in and out of the stuck cars' fun!!

[sadako]

Damnit I want my MR2 back for that. Snow + Mk1 MR2 =

[Andy Mac]

I got a wee little 4x4 yesterday, and it has selectable 4WD/RWD, so I was having LOTS of fun in the snow with it in rwd mode! Loads more fun than the Quattro A4! Sliding round the corners at my Sisters gaff was hilarious!
