I know exactly what you mean, I have been forced to bake bread because our road is so lethal and the local shop hasn't had any deliveries....

I do too: I took a two-mile round trip in order to collect my latest 'Fit Note'; I might as well have come back with my Death Certificate!:cold:

I bet Tunbridge Wells has changed a wee bit since I moved away in 1970?:D

PS: MY 'Death Certificate' was a reference to the state of the pavements BTW!

Where are you that it’s that bad?

Only time I’d rather be in Woking!

Midkent. Can't get car out, road is like an icerink and due to a broken foot, I can't walk very far.

AT LAST!!!

Had to happen given the models have all upgraded and the real time reports were suggestive that the yellow warning wasn't going to be enough.

one of the ironies of this fantastic cold spell is that I have been trying to buy a 4WD car, but I am snowed in so cannot go and get, on the irny

If that Eastern flank over Dieppe can get anywhere near the mouth of the Thames, then game on for the eastern side as well. Gut feel is the whole lot will get a big pull NW before then unfortunately.

It is slowly creeping this way, I was sceptical this morning, but you never know....

Looking for action in the Dover strait, next few radar grabs crucial for our area.
