'tSnow Use Complaining........

An important day today - our middle daughters birthday!



View from our back garden looking up the fields



Early morning view towards Northbank Road



Just after the sunrise!



Only one set of footprints in the snow!


Just to prove that we are at the onset of Winter, we have finally got a decent fall of snow. As I said in my blog yesterday, the forecast is for more snow during the coming week, and a heavy fall early on Monday morning (Dec 21st). That should cause fun and games with the commuters!

I've already heard of a traveller stuck for in excess of three hours on the M62 yesterday. Why is it, whenever we get a fall of snow our country seems to grind to a halt? I was reading in the newspaper yesterday that some authorities only have sufficient salt to grit the roads for 6 days. If this is the case I think we have some very inefficient people in charge of our highways. Don't they realise that at this time of year we are likely to get some snowy weather?
