To think, we are nearly into May.[/QUOTE]
Drove from Aberdeen to Huntly ( was over for grandsons 4th Birthday, met the wife over there after work), so drove in a bit a sleet no probs
after kids in bed, fish & chips from Huntley's finest chipper and chatted over a nice fire, 9pm wife says oh its starting to lay and so we set off to Alford........
I followed the wife ( fortunately she has snow tyres on the front ... ( me 4x4 pug with snow tyres ), Blizzard all the way ,,,,
mental.....
3-4" of fresh snow.. wife lost it on a bend into a wee bridge , recovered it no problem , I hit the same black ice under the snow and the esp and other trickery battered in and the car did its job.. took us an hour ( 20miles), few other 4x4... on the road all the sensible folk cabined up with fires on...
I know it was forcast but it was still a shock....
Summer next week
