It all looks so beautiful where you live debs.
Mr Dusty and I live in a rural area ,but nothing on the scale of where you live.
I'am jealous. ;D :-* :-* :-*

Can see the mountains from here but no snow.

It only takes 2 or 3 minutes per wheel Cem.....the chain-kit is an "Ice Force 4500 made by Siepa"; an easy set to fit and remove and give amazing 'bite' (even on snow laying-over ice).
I bought them at a few years ago, at Carrefour hyper-market in Cite-Europe (Northern-France): a real bargain at €25......they have served me well. :y

Wrong wheel drive Andy. Got a HUGE truckstop in Immingham that will be empty by the time i get up (using up holidays). Sadly no Beastie till the spring but 2.8 3 series BM should be entertaining!!!
LOVE were you live Debs. Bet Laz can get anywhere. My S3 (Ronnie) would've loved it!!!!! :D

.......
Wrong wheel drive Andy. .......
I know! ;D But I couldn't give a monkey's if I put it in a field/into a tree.
It can be quite entertaining actually, if you provoke the backout using the handbrake! ::) It very quickly boringly toes the line & follows the front of the car .... although this morning on the way to work the Astra just went straight when the road went right ;D

I had a bit of a drive to work like that today, rural roads, no grit, like driving on ice all the time. Came home the long way round using main roads ::) and that was in the Citroen ::)

I had a LOT of a journey like that yesterday, over 2 hours to go 21 miles when it normally takes me about 40 mins. :y
It remains to be seen whether tomorrow will be a repeat due to the forecast of more snow. It'll be fun if it snows on top of all the ice on the side roads on our estate

I made my daughter walk to the childminder this morning given the state of some of the roads and the difficult bends and hills, with cars parked all over, on her estate. Likely to be the same in the morning. No snow as such yet, but any snow will be on top of Ice on most roads,, bad news. ::)

Been looking at the chains on fleabay.
Not sure if these are the same as the one's that Deb;s has but they look similar. Am thinking of investing in a set.
Any thoughts?
