Not one car has got out of my road. Sheet ice. One guy started de icing his car and gave up it was so frozen. Just be thankful your road is gritted, we're not all so lucky.

Liars. I know we all 'don't volunteer information' sometimes, but I'm sick of people that blatantly lie. What's the point? There's a few people I unfortunately know that I just can't believe a word that comes out of their mouths. Really pisses me off.

Aye. Fixed the last problem, and had only just about completed re-installing all my software.
And now it's seriously FUBAR'ed.
What's pissing me off the most is I can't identify whether it's the RAM or the motherboard, or both.

Now it looks like I get a weekend alone too. 
As if it isn't bad enough not having any customers/work all week, now it looks like my girl won't be able to get home for the weekend thanks to this country's inability to deal with a bit of snow
Bring back Global Warming!

They've got it really bad down there, motorway keeps getting closed for various crashes and ice. She can't get stuck up here and I really don't need to B&Bing it down there if I get stuck. Could go by train but they're a nightmare at the moment .... not that I'd know how to get there by train

WPMO erm yesterday
Mrs M and I sat down last night to watch "surveillance' of the Sky Box. What a load of shite, totally predictable and a waste of a hour and half.
I 'heroically' managed to do a bottle and half of wine while watching it though |

I'm with you there, the novelty has worn off for me. I would much rather all the snow and ice disappeared |

Yep bored with the snow now, was good when it was fresh but now it has frozen and the side roads are like skating rinks it,s starting to p**s me off.
No deliveries from couriers so struggling to get work done in the workshop.
From what I have read we may possibly get some more at the weekend, that will make everything stop again.....it,s all pants 
end of my rant.......

Looks like the country is going to run out of road salt & with more snow on the way, we could have problems if this cold spell lasts much longer !

Yes - which can lead to throwing up, so she's really no better off, is she?
