Nice pics Al.......more to come Thursday and Friday apparntly.

Yep, the worst is still to come, Liz got me to drive this morning, she doesn't do snow well.

You need to get your pulk out and start delivering bread and milk ..........

LOL, my Daughter wanted to borrow it to use as a sled, no problem I said, until I mentioned the lack of sides

We decided to close our warehouse and send all the staff home.
Oddly the roads in my town are pretty clear even though it's usually worse here being 800ft higher than Glasgow but it seems the motorways around the central belt of Scotland are badly hit. Forecast here is constant snow until midnight with some more tomorrow.

Still seems like a lot of fuss and chaos over a bit of snow. I'm sure the folks in Scandinavia would be laughing at us.

If it stays will you be out in it at the weekend?

Hmmm don't know , I've used all my pass outs for the moment .

Guess who has another pass, 3 weekends in a row IF I take her up on it ???

Snow ,wind and cold temperatures here at the moment and a red warning for the central belt tomorrow.

 

[Bopdude]

Yep, coming down heavy now, very poor visibility, set to go on until 20.00, Son of just said we'd been switched up to amber alert tbc ?

 

[Ark79]

It’s getting bad now. Wat a would give to be perched under a tarp with a large fire and a cup of coffee

 

[Madriverrob]

If you were here your tarp would be lucky to survive , some hellish strong wind outside .......

 

[Ark79]

School canceled....... so my little men will be out playing

 

[Ark79]

It’s bad lee. 1 mile walk to work this morning lol. Car is under a foot of snow.

 

[lee]

Doesn't look that bad mark, got a good few inches here in the SE one unlucky chap died yesterday at the local park after going on a frozen lake after his dog that fell through

 

[Joecole]

So its true, the Yeti is alive and thriving in Scotland

I sold the old trusty Suzuki yesterday and got all the money due to the snow, and it was a good day to buy a convertable for a good price due to the snow and it being February lol we only need one 4x4 (that I will be driving sad to her go though. I'm now In the freelander (unless I get the Isuzu trooper I have my eye on) and Kelly is in Astra twin top.
