No sight of snow here although its not forecast until about 01:00-02:00 in the morning.
Day off work? I have meetings to attend, and if all else fails, remote access
Will be interesting if we get our projected 5-6 inches of snowfall, when my car is about 2 inches off the tarmac
I will have to macguyver a snow-plough mechanism for the front bumper...

At 11:45 pm i am reporting no snow in South Manchester!
I have just been out and put Ellie to bed (My 9n3)
I went to Tesco to get a cover for the front windscreen, but it worked out about a fiver cheaper to get a Tesco value double bed sheet!! and it wont be as harsh on the paintwork!
Fits very nice over the mirrors and across the window, i have then got it on springy clips to the rear wheel arch!
Only time will tell if it actually works!!

Many many moons ago...... well December 1999 to be precise 
I had my driving test scheduled for a winter morn but it was cancelled due to the conditions (icy roads, snow) so instead my Mum made me and my instructor bacon butties and mugs of coffee haha
I passed on January 15th after the local driving centre place rescheduled it

Still nothing here!!
I am sat here on my laptop with my window blinds open like a small child! lol
I love to find a large car park when it snows and practice my driving on ice skills!!
On a serious note, i did that last year and the practice saved me writing my car off on two occasions in the past year!!

Haha, Jon Culshaw is brilliant
I remember when he impersonated Shaggy, and prank called Caesar's Palace on Capital FM years ago

Alas, there's no snow where I am yet. According to the Express, we're getting 7 inches (pfft, don't interpret that the wrong way) of snow.
But we all know that the Express, like its right-wing sister, the Mail, tend to overreact to most of today's issues.
