Nightmare, no chance of re-enacting that clip from Stick It then! Any knowledge from people out in yorkshire today would be welcome please.

Glad you like the video, snow is brilliant for making places look good!

I'm a sucker for snow photos, I'll be out posing in my finest threads tomorrow regardless of conditions.

The bit where Schirrrmacher does a girly twirl when topping out?  Whatever floats your boat, man.

Hmmm blockbuster may be dry, but I assume a gent of your calibre has already completed that particular problem

Mow sleeting in Grindleford,m which means that once the front passes it will probably mean a thick coating of ice on everything.

The works might be dry ???

First stop secret garden ( if toads head dry) if not.. Minus ten. Yep. Really

-7.5 according to the car today with freezing fog, there was a bit of melt yesterday afternoon so I'd say it was a day for a walk and taking photographs.

Moral of story is that BMW estates are great when it is dry/wet (& fun when muddy) but a fucking fat 1.5 tonne sack of shit in the snow!


Beamers are always first cars you see in the ditch up here when it snows.

Been coming down hard here since early hours, temp zero deg so it is piling up, got to drive to work at some point, but staying put for now!

I'm off today, Longridge is in OK nick I'm told.  Think I'll take the Blobs sledging since it's still snowing hard then reassess later.

Pantymwyn was blanketed today. Sacked climbing and had a snowball fight and sledgeathon with a group of 11 year olds. I fucking love snow.

As of today DWR area dry except DBS, Si's arete, keel and Syrett's roof dry, most other tings wet, but a lot was drying as we left.  Think Pistol Whip/Making Shapes was also dry but didn't have look.
