Not completely due to snow, Tunbridge Wells has ground to a complete halt, and I got fed up of juggling 210bhp through the front wheels!

Back at home, enjoying espresso and iPod music

Big to the guy in the black S2 Elise who'd made it all the way to Tunbridge Wells. His 'hacksawing' muscles must be well warmed up by now!

Why haven't we heard from Pies? Perhaps he's got so much snow that he can't even get to his PC.

Perhaps you should have prepared for a longer stopping distance

Ferndale, Just behind St. James' church.

Result on the 'snow day' ! I found out the boss made it in (he lives in T wells too) so I had to try again. Now i'm at work, wondering if I'll have to sleep under my desk...

We have about 1 1/2" in Leeds and it still falling. woooo! I dont think it was even forecast here. We have much more than we got in the so-called called cold snap of last week


Yep, there was next to nothing at 6:30 this morning then it all dumped by the time I went out at 9.
There was an Aston behind me weaving his way through the traffic.

I live in Pembury (Just outside Tunbridge Wells) We had 3 or 4 inches when i left this morning, and it was still falling hard the last time i heard.

I hope the trains home from london arent affected and the roads have cleared, i spent a large proportion of this morning driving sideways and appliying opposite lock despite doing less than 15 mph

It's been snowing like bu66ery here all day (half way to E Grinstead from T Wells) and not a single flake has stuck to the ground. All melted.

I assume the rest of you Surrey types have snow now. There's a blizzard here in Dorking sur mer, which I'm watching carefully as I don't fancy kipping on my desk. Any Guildford reports?
