Hi All,
Just wondered has any one seen the promised snow yet, how far west it is cos i'm freezing my **** off now and i still got a big hole where my gearbox should be.
Not here either yet we have rain of biblical proportions instead. I am s. coast. Like you I have her up on stands .(
Nothing here yet, Playing on the bike in the Dales tomorrow though so hoping for some then!
A half hour flurry at 8.00 am that didn't settle , back to papering the kitchen then , busmans holiday !
Bright and sunny here, but bloody cold
Ive whacked my postcode into BBC Weather and theres nothing due here for the next week.
The gritters were out this morning though....

Gritters ?? What are they ?
Big yellow lorries full of corrosive pink crap that destroys tarmac and shotblasts the paint from your bonnet when they pass by at warp factor seven.....scotty.
In our county its applied thickly and only on inner city roads,perfectly flat A-roads and the exact cornering line of motorcycles.
You can see them from late September until mid January when they've run out of supplies.
Natuarally they cannot purchase any more because the money has been earmarked to repair last years potholes and to paint and re-roof the council flats which are to be demolished later in the year.
All of which passes by our esteemed leaders while they pursue their public bitching matches.
But other than that, alls fine.
Our Council spends cash on wee plastic bins for certain types of waste, and spread that grit / type 1 ( lol) sparcely.
evdama,I just spotted one of those big yellow mobile pebbledash applicators spreading the stuff, so I hope that means better weather ahead..only joking, without those guys out in all weather etc I dread to think what would happen.
