king word on the BBC again about the snow, I swear I'll turn the TV off 
It's been terrible today. First I had to wipe snow off my windscreen, yes SNOW on my windscreen! There must have been about three inches of snow on my driveway, up to my knees I was. Then I had to perform a hill start in the snow, which I'm still recovering from now, don't worry I'll be fine tomorrow. To top that I had to navigate a snow covered road in town where the central white lines were obscured and falling snow limited my forward view to only 200 metres. How I managed to steer a straight path while trying not to hit any of the kids sledging on the park I'll never know.
The horror, the horror........
The horror, the horror........
Freeview channel 80 (BBC News) - rolling reports about snow all afternoon. It goes like this:
Two presenters in the studio talking about the snow
Cut to reporter #1 standing in snow somewhere talking about snow
Cut to reporter #2 standing in snow somewhere talking about snow
Cut to reporter #3 standing in snow somewhere talking about snow
Two presenters in the studio talking about the snow
Cut to reporter #1 standing in snow somewhere talking about snow
Cut to reporter #2 standing in snow somewhere talking about snow
Cut to reporter #3 standing in snow somewhere talking about snow
Two presenters in the studio talking about the snow
Cut to reporter #1 standing in snow somewhere talking about snow
Cut to reporter #2 standing in snow somewhere talking about snow
Cut to reporter #3 standing in snow somewhere talking about snow
And repeat. Well it fills up another digital channel.
Oh yes, and Louise Wotsit the weathergirl doesn't even know what 30cm is in inches. When asked, she said 'Well 20cm is 8" so 30cm must be, er, 10 or 11"'. Hasn't the dozy bint ever looked at a ruler? Grr.
