Country will grind to a halt and everyone will phone in and not go to work, with only 10mm fallen.

Nothing here yet - apparently we'll get a sprinkling tonight as we're right on the edge of it.
I hope to fuck it doesn't snow. I can't be arsed with proper traffic chaos causing snow. What makes it worse is I live at home and am not a single parent, therefore I have to make every effort to get to work.

I like messing about in cars in the snow. Corsa was funny to drive last year. Made it up hills some other cars couldn't.

When I had my old car I'd take her to an empty car park, boot it up to about 30/40 and yank the handbrake up. Fun times! Or reverse up to about 30, 1st gear, spin the wheel, foot down.
Hope it snows

My Corsa was immense in the snow. Being 12v with no weight over the front wheels and thin tyres it would just float over the compacted stuff.
Punto will probably be shit.

I'm praying for snow. Only reason I'd move up north is for the snow 
my hilux did some good 4WD donuts couple of years back. Didn't use the m3 this year.
Came out of work earlier and it was a bit slippy. Traction light was flashing loads

I love it. I love everything it brings (except major accidents) and the fact that most people love getting involved with snow ball fights, tobogganing etc

Yeah it can GTF. It's a proper inconvenience and I don't trust people to not crash in to my car.

I can walk to work so not bothered. I can also phone my customers and tell them I'm unable to get in. They usually say that's fine as I can't use the car anyway
