Well for some reason my Acme Sarcast-o-meter {tm} was borked. When I get a chance I'll put some new batteries in it.
Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, ogden Right, that's it. I've just pulled the plug on my Glasgow trip.
329M with a view to using the M4 as I thought the roads through Holyport would be nearly as bad as the residential ones near home. The sliproad onto the M4 was solid, as was the M4 itself, so ended up going along the A4. In hindsight, that was A Bad Idea.
Fuckloads out here in the sticks. No buses, and the DLR turned back at Westferry. Booked a GP appointment for this arvo in an attempt to not have to bother for the rest of the week.
We did that to a school mate on our skiing trip to Bulgaria in 1979. Locked him out on the balcony in his pyjamas bottoms and bare feet. Decided to let him in when he changed colour. He was ever so cross with us. Apparently it was around -15 deg C.
I actually had a day off booked for today - interview in London (cough). That's been cancelled. Bah. And most of the office hasn't made it in. So I'm doing some work. Bah.I'll get this day knocked off my holiday allowance, I think. A foot of snow, drifting to two feet, here in Sutton. Just had an epic snowball fight with half the street. Schools closed, nobody can get to work, so...
Rubbish. If your only way out is to lock and skid, you've well overdone it already. ABS can actually help regain drive. Of course, a decent combination of 4WD, ABS, TCS and EPS plus winter tyres and 300bhp all working seemlessly together is the way to really moake the most of the snow ) Winter tyres, on their own, are of much grater benefit than anything else, though - I wonder if the UK will start to catch on to the idea any year soon?
Not until prices of winter tyres come down to reasonable levels. Having been shown the prices of winter tyres in Austria last night[1] I really do feel we're being ripped off something chronic over here for them. [1] About 30 quid a corner cheaper. -- Lozzo SV650S K5, ZX-7R P4, CBR600F-W, SR250 SpazzTrakka, SR250 Project SpazzCaffer I see a bright new future, where chickens can cross the road with no fear of having their motives questioned
I fucking hope not, they'd make them mandatory with a sodding great fine if you haven't got them. -- Krusty '03 Tiger 955i '02 MV Senna (for sale) '96 Tiger (for sale) '79 Fantic Hiro 250 (for sale) '81 Corvette (for sale)
