Oz. It blends in so well with the snow, if it gets any thicker, you won't be able to find the car!
I think we're going to give it a miss now too.

I left home at 7.25 to a few flakes of snow falling - will be OK thinks I. 10 minutes later on the A3 over an inch - move out of the tracks and the car twitches. Then see a 3 car pile up.
No gritters out and no sign of it stopping so I take next exit, call Pompey Ice and apologise profusely for delay in getting his brake discs to him, turn around and came home.
Lets put it this way - I had to remove the snow from the headlights before the pods would retract!
Still snowing and no sign of it stopping. Someone is determined that I don't make one of these things!
At least there was some bacon in the fridge

Looking at the times of these posts - I think someone has forgotten to put the clock forward
and this is why I turned around - the A3...

Colin, that picture looks like a recipe for either a disaster, or a lot of fun!!!!
Glad I stayed in really.
I wondered about the clock too. Just pleased I never brought it up earlier
