About a Mile before Gargrave south on the A591 yesterday afternoon.
About half inch of snow on the roads.

Anyone on here? I've spun on that much snow myself. frown

errr.. Gargrave is nowhere near the Lakes, and the A591 doesnt go through it. Do you mean Grasmere ?

I'm afraid to admit it was mine - heading home between Grasmere and Thirlmere.

Came round the bend and into half an inch of slush. Rear end lost it and next thing I know I'm bouncing off a small steel cable barrier at the side of the road and spinning back onto the road.

I'm absolutely fine, not even a bruise but the car looks like a definite write off I'm afraid

Yes your right, I stop at Gargrave on my way up. smile

Anyway glad your okay, I was in the Mini but couldn't stop anyway.
I had set off earlier over the Kirkstone Pass but turned back due
to the snow so decided to have a wonder round Keswick and Grasmere.

Strange thing is if you were heading the same way it was just getting
clearer on the roads.
