The sun has come out. Either that or there's a UFO about to hit Builth Wells.

Normally I'd be sad about this but I've done more than enough snow driving in the last week taking Powys Careline staff around as part of 4x4 Response Wales. If the garage jetwash could thaw out so I can clean last weekend's mud and a week of snowy gunge off the car I'd be even happier!  :D

Went out last night in good Samaritan mode as all the townies from Plymouth were trying to get out to Dartmoor.

Spent 1/2 an hour out near the Ringmoor cottage turning, Directing a few cars about that were attempting to go down the hill towards Meavy.  :doh:

sadly all gone down here in cornwall, came on very suddenly on monday, more on tuesday but rained all day thursday so none left.

Is it still snowy in Devon? Maybe I should make a trip up tomorrow to play, not sure I can justify spending the money on diesel though when it should be used for getting to work for the next few weeks!! Am Pretty p*ss poor right now till first pay day of my new job :-(

Nothing down here in Camborne and I was away when it did snow. Was interesting for about 30 mins on the way home throuh Devon on wednesday as there was a few inches on the A30. Bloke in front of me was fdoing 25mph despire the road carrageway being clear of snow. So I had to go over to overtake on the snowy bit, but nothing silly. So then everyone else did expect the BMW that went sideways earlier.

Also I put the spade/wellies and hand winch in the back before I left.
