When a man is tired of snow he is tired of life
Thursday, December 2, 2010 I love my car but, I have to admit, it's rubbish in winter. It slips and slides all over the place and this weekend I shall be driving to the Peak District where I once drove into a dry stone wall in conditions very similar to this week.
Despite this - I LOVE SNOW!! I really do. It hasn't snowed in Cambridgeshire for two, possibly three, days but it's so cold that apart from the snow on the road, very little has melted.
I love looking at the snow - and the rabbits and the guinea pigs - from the kitchen window. I wish it was like this all the time - well, until March, at least.
Meanwhile, I'm just going to have to bite the bullet and buy some winter tyres. Or a 4×4. No, winter tyres are cheaper.

Not if you live where I live, and have been stuck, unable to use the car for 3 days.
And it looks like it will also stop me going over to France this weekend.
Stuff the bloody stuff.
Snow...glorious snow!
We’re up to our eyeballs in the stuff. You want to put your rose tinted glasses back in the draw Simon.
What snow!!!!!!!!!
When a man is tired of life he may as well have snow!!
My, as far as I can get from all the SH one T, bit of Britain is devoid of the stuff and I'm delighted.
Life goes on with far less intrusion and It's times like this I can forget the crap you're all suffering.
Yep, the brainwashing of the brain dead is complete - the woman who called 999 to report the theft of the snowman outside her house had gone "outside for a fag"
