I wouldn't worry about the weather but other drivers definitely.
The fact folk are buying supplies displays the level of faggotry we have become accustom to in this country.

Just thinking actually, around this time last year I remember powersliding out of Keele services in my brother's MR2, in the snow on my way to a job in the south somewhere. Maybe I'm thinking too much.

Probably around the same time, it was all over the news how trains were off in London and no-one could get anywhere beyond their front door yet a Bulgarian couple managed to get from central London to St Helens via train, bought my Dad's 740i and drove it back again without a problem, well apart from not being able to press the accelerator until he was out of our street because of the ice
