Off to the Champagne region of France for the weekend...friends in Bromley who have a Range Rover have dropped out worried about the snow!!!

Here in Bristol there is noting but a few frozen puddles, hope our drive down the M4, M25, M26 & M20 are clear...al be it full of trucks on the hard-sholder. Will use the Volvo and if its sunny may even put the roof down.

Stuck in Dublin tonight as flight's cancelled due to snow at this end and possibly Southampton end too.

Worse news is that the Maserati Wig-Wam has collapsed under the weight of the snow, so apparently there's now a vaguely Maserati Granturismo shape snow covered tent in the front garden. :frusty5:

The Mrs thought it might be a problem when she saw the snow settling as it happened the year before last when the Lotus lived in it, but didn't think to move the car out before it collapsed :hammer1:

Hope things are ok Dan, if that had been me , i'd have demanded she stood beside the tent on a chair with a hairdryer melting the snow before it laid on the tent , in all fairness i would probably have got shown a couple of alphabetically arranged fingers

Well.... I'm still here!
More accurately, I'm back in my office as I had no intention of sitting around the airport until Saturday morning which when the next available flight is.
P thanks for the kind offer, should have taken you up on it rather than wasting my money on a hotel at the airport last night only for my 8am flight to be cancelled at 6:30!

When I parked the Mini up last night at the hotel I went roaring into the car park and beached it in the fresh snow, all pleased with myself.... kinda regretted that at 7am this morning after deciding I was going to drive back to the office.
