Off up t'north tomorrow, then Manchester for game Saturday, coming back Sunday. All indications suggest we are looking at 12 degrees. So do I put my Summers back on and switch back to Winters next weekend when invariably it'll be pishing down with snow and I'll get my hands frozen off or live with it. tongue out

Anyone wishing to take the pish out of having winters on in the warmest December for 20000 years can bog off now biggrin

Are you taking the piss or are you seriously considering swapping the tyres?

Well, spring doesn't start until March, so you have plenty of winter to enjoy yet.

Not taking the piss, considering swapping back for a week (wheels and tyres, not just tyres smile)

I put my summer wheels/tyres back on last week.

30 mins to change them over if I need to.

Yup. TBH the winters look crap and I'm a bit embarrassed posing around in it with them on.

Unless you live in the Scottish Highlands, I don't see the point of going through the hassle of winter tyres and all that swapping back and forth lark. Sensible driving on modern all weather tyres or here is a radical idea, not driving at all will see you through the 2 days of snow we get per year in this country.

(Am I doing it right biggrin)?

And when it drops to 11 degrees and he is still driving to find a place to change to winters he is going to spin off into a fiery horrible crash and st loads of kittens will be killed because his 12 degrees + tyres can no longer handle the extreme conditions of 11 degrees rolleyes
