we had enough to make the roads and hills a bit tricky (only about 3") my people carrier is a 4x4 but thought this was just a lame sort of marketing ploy by toyota, how wrong i was this thing is exelent in the slipery stuff hats off to our oriental cousins they got it right again
Went 'round to my new house a minute ago to check out what potential snow-based problems we might experience in the future, the main one? no steps down to the house and a 1 in 4 gradient at one point in the driveway Both me and the girlfriend fell on our asses on our way out, methinks I will invest in a good yard brush when we move in in a couple of weeks ...
Driving up the lane back to the main road (also 1 in 4 at one spot) was, ummm, interesting. The locals park at the top of the road and just walk up in the morning, which seems like a smart move
Not to bad here,but plenty of snow on Winter Hill at the end of my street
Here is Two Lads Fell taken at tea time,i left the trip a bit late and did not get up until after Dark it was easy to see on the way back thanks to the snow reflecting the light.

Its been empty a year and is dry as a bone Seriously though, its just built on a big wiggly hill ... some of the houses opposite have unuseably steep driveways!
