Gotta feel sorry for all the shops with boxes of snow shovels for sale.. Laughing
I'm sure the snow will arrive. Makes me glad I went for wet weather tyres and not winters.... Previously..

United Kingdom 2007 Range Rover Supercharged 4.2 SC V8 Zermatt Silver

We've just arrived home from a 300 mile round trip to Devon to see my parents in the Blackdown Hills.

It was wetter than a wet thing. Nothing too serious on the roads, but enough to make me take the FF over our E55.

And it was just a nice feeling, as always, taking a car that's so complete at everything. From fast A&B roads to flooded roads to smoothing out country lanes and tracks to cosseting two adults and two children in utter comfort.

A bit more power would have been nice (my cries for a S/C have been ignored) but that's all I can fault.

It may not be a proper winter yet, but my FF's still being used in just the same way. Si. <This is my name.

I eat rat poison.

A man ain't truly been insulted until he stands buck naked in front of a woman and she didn't even notice. Or care.

Im going to agree with Bellini, wet weather of late is making me appreciate the ff. funny to laugh at the BMW drivers in the snow, but the ff has been used for a lot of paddlimg around the country lanes of recent.

Living on the edge of the trent flood plane has its disadvantages. Luckily we are 40 foot above the river but other poor folk close by are not so lucky and have spent xmas umderwater. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Typical!! I go somewhere that's getting between 7-12cms every day and the snow finally looks to be hitting the UK!!

I hope it sticks so that when I get back my greenlaning day the day after will be fun, never mind fitting a whole new set of pads and discs and a caliper that night!
