Epic wheelie bin shot. Now you can’t use the bin until the thaw.

Yep, cold one this morning. Brushed the overnight snow off the D3 and used the remote to fire up the FBH at 06.45. Should all be nice and warm by the time I've had breakfast!Previously:

20-30 cms of snow since last night. All public transport cancelled, and the airport at Gardermoen is closed seen as the planes can't see the landing lights
No problem driving the kids to school though, whilst wearing the Permagrin

Bet the kids were disappointed they didn’t get a day off , plus 1 with having that permagrin driving on a normally empty road
Wonder what the uk would do if they had this amount of snow,

We had about 8” of snow, but it’s been raining at least since I got up at 0530 and I got post today, which is a bonus.

No.2 son decided to visit us for the weekend with 4 friends.
Unfortunately he slid off a very icy patch on the road.
Thankfully the car didn't hit any trees, else the outcome would probably have been a lot worse than some minor cuts and bruises!

On the initial call he did emphasise that all of them were pretty much fine.
He did say the car might be a write off....before I saw the pictures!Black 05 TDV6 HSE Auto
