The Ant Hill mob and I went to Hinckley yesterday to look for a new motor to replace RRR, (that's another story).

Well we stopped for a meal to let the tea-time traffic die down and set off back around 7.  I had to stop becasue the car I had bought was a bit uncomfortable to drive and just as we were rejoining the motorway 3 fire wagons sped past, blues and twos on, followed by EVERY police car they had.

"Oh cack" I thought, so with Julie following I tried to navigate around the back roads, through Nottingham and Mansfield.  It's dead hard whent he signs are covered in snow :roll:

Got back at midnight :shock:   Don't know what had happened on the motorway but just as we left they had turned on the 40 signs above the carriageway, they were 30 signs on the sliproad north for anyone joining the carriageway we left :shock:

Land rovers are my fav because they are flexible, big and can go anywhere.

Don't waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long, and in the end, it's only with yourself. !!!

All its been down here is lots of rain but on the upside there has been lots of big puddles.

Best thing about yesterday is that she wants to go again. she even asked if we can take a picnic & sit up on the bench for it (where we stopped on that corner of Ramsden Lane)
So come Easter, I'll have her back up there & let her run about, as it's a nice location for SWMBO & myself just to sit back as well.

Well I can almost guarantee no more snow now as I fixed the PAS leak on Blue so I can drive it again :roll:

Just my luck it started the day the snow came down.
