mikeprice Posted December 10, 2017 Posted December 10, 2017 No snow here - but still hoping to be able to hide away from the various 'plays' and 'events' fortunately - I'm beyond hearing range of the noises roll on Friday
elsiegee40 Posted December 10, 2017 Posted December 10, 2017 With the car looking like this we dug it out and let Waze take us home, leaving about 3.30pm. (A6, A14, A1, A602, A10, M25) Got home at 5.45pm which was pretty good. No snow once we crossed back into Kent.
newpersn Posted December 10, 2017 Posted December 10, 2017 And we are shut tomorrow. Day off for my daughters 5th birthday

rad Posted December 10, 2017 Posted December 10, 2017 7 inches of snow in Bucks...and I have to make the commute into London to school as currently we are open! Great And I get the wake up call to update the website!
Davit2005 Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 My dog been out in the snow and loved it. [ATTACH]46663[/ATTACH] Looks like I did at home after my run at 8am yesterday morning. It then snowed non stop till about 4pm ending up in 50mm on the road (and all over me car). Trying to get out of the parking spot was a bit of a mare, then almost got stuck jus round the corner from home. Left home 30mins earlier for M25 journey just in case.

Trying to get out of the parking spot was a bit of a mare, then almost got stuck jus round the corner from home... Several neighbours have abandoned attempts to move their cars after revving their engines and making no progress. From my front window I can see two cars in the road at crazy angles to the kerb. I think I will sit tight today.
mikeprice Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 No snow here - well a pathetic attempt yesterday which seems to have partially melted and then re-frozen overnight - followed by a light sprinkle afterwards resulting in a frozen mess on all the car windows which took nearly 15 mins to clear off but basically enough to be a pain but not enough to be pretty or fun or close the school
localzuk Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 We were predicted snow yesterday. Got 11 hours of rain instead, with 10 minutes of sleet.
sted Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 naff all here looks like someone has gone round with an icing sugar shaker and thats about it
DCUK6 Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 Started snowing at home, further ive got into work the worse it got. Still open though and still snowing. May be a fun trip home.
bossman Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 Wow!

Enjoy your snow darn Sarf! hehe! 1
GiggleKitteh Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 Made it out to Buckinghamshire and back yesterday to shop for an elderly relative. One clear track on duel carriageway and traffic only doing 30, don't think the gritters had been out. Had to walk the last bit as only 4x4s could get up the hill!!! I can now say I can do "proper" winter driving
elsiegee40 Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 Persisting it down with rain here in West Kent this morning. I am glad we made it home last night, but I still have no desire to go out
BKGarry Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 Persisting it down with rain here in West Kent this morning. I am glad we made it home last night, but I still have no desire to go out I was going to say, there was a nice flurry yesterday morning, but by midday the rain had come and taken it all away, and today is just plain miserable. 1
dry Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 Probably about 0.5-1 inch here in Reading on Sunday morning. Pretty much all melted now It must have fallen thick and fast though as I was designated driver on Saturday night- there wasn't a single flake at 04:30 Sunday morning and the roads were wet. Woke up at 9am to a blanket.
