If it ain't broke, don't fix it. If it ain't dirty, do something about it!!

Yeah, I know it's not white and it's not a 90 but my last one was :-)

I know that you are going to hate me for this but:

Yesterday I was playing in very very deep snow. Over the bonnet mounted spare wheel in two places.

Sometimes you just know why you had to buy a V8. It overheated though while ploughing uphill through wheel high snow. Not surprising when you think how much air was passing through the packed snow at the front.

Once I had dug the snow out of the radiator it was ok

Somedays I just love owning a LR!

I was up north-west of Aberdeen over the weekend and it was -11C on Sunday morning, having snowed on Friday night.  Unfortunately I had a hired Focus - could have done with a 4wd, although at least the Focus was a lot lighter than the Disco!

Saw a lot of tricked-up Landies and Suzukis heading west from Aberdeen on Sunday morning - wonder what this was?

Not started here in the centre of West Yorkshire, but the skies have that luminoscity that tends to be a precursar to the white flaky stuff.

A few flakes, then, nowt!  The sun came out again, I don't believe it it's December for heaven's sake, It's christmas on Saturday.  If it doesn't snow soon I'll have no excuse for not doing any christmas shopping!

It's as cold as the proverbial outside now, if only there was a little precipitation.....
