Well that was a weird experience.
Had to go visit mother and got caught in the snow up here Int Norf.

Well I wouldnt say its the worse car I've ever driven in the snow but boy is it the strangest. I does go up hills, but very sideways. You know what I mean???

Drove my car in the snow a few times, lowered the tire pressures a little and never had any trouble.

It's been weird around Swindon. We've had snow and hail storms for about 10 mins, then bright blue sky.

I was also on the mother's day run today, in the cerb & in the snow, didn't get too snowy though, just the odd flurry. Didn't therefore have the experience of going sideways up any hills in snow, we must be in different parts of Yorkshire'
Whilst on the Mother's day run called in on the West Yorkshire TVR meet, obviously the weather had put several others off taking the TVR out, only 3 TVR's there. Good turn out of people though, they must've all walked there.

Hi Pete
You might have to let me know where the TVR meet is in West Yorkshire.
Might get out to the next one - Snow permitting!

Steve, 3rd Sunday of the month @ Manor Golf club , close to Tong, just of the A650 Bradford to Wakefield Road.
There's also a PH meet 2nd Monday of the Month, check the Yorkshire forum on this site for further details, I've not been to this myself yet but planning on going to the next.

Didn't have a problem, due to being in Ireland and Sans Cerb, good job I didn't have a hire car as I couldn't drive it due to spending the whole St Paddies weekend pissed, though the weather was bloody wierd, sunshine, rain, sunshine, snow, sunshine at that was in a 5 min period. Then earlier today(... no, checks watch....) yesterday the sun was shining out in Dublin, then the darkest cloud ever came over. I said to my lady friend "I think we're about to get pissed on again".... no far worse, the heaviest, most stinging hailstorm I've ever been in. You think the weather is odd in England??? Go to Ireland - great place though. Just remember it's not a green and pleasant land because the weather is hot and sunny - it ritually pisses down.
