its not important you purchase brand new snow tires or not..One tw*t with slick tires can block up a whole road when skate..

at the very first day of snow if it starts midnight time I definitely use metro in the morning..but if snow catch me in job no chance..

because our hard working municipality is never ready at the first day..

but if prime ministers car starts to  skate  they start to clean the roads ;D ;D  lazy tw*ts !

and you can also understand the meteorology is in deep sleep ;D ;D

I am in Rochdale at the moment - tried to get to a client meeting this morning, with the usual collection of consultants and their collection of mercs, in four inches of snow.

The roads weren't gritted at all, and the mercs slid around on the snow in a hilarious fashion, with their nervous drivers worried about denting their 40 grand cars... Me and the trusty 2 grand mig, in snow mode, climbed an icy slope out of the car park, picked up all the consultants when they abandoned their mercs, and transported them in heated leather seat comfort.

For about three hundred yards down the road, before we got stuck behind a tw%t who refused to admit that spinning the wheels in the middle of the road wasn't getting them anywhere.

We walked to the site in the end. (it was a mile away). Our meeting was called off because the client couldn't make it.  ::)

I love this weather!

I had to laugh this morning when, on the way back from our cancelled meeting, I achieved the following client facing high powered business objectives with four of my colleagues, all of whom are 40+, two of whom are directors of a major multimillion pound construction firm (which shall remain nameless):

* built a very poorly designed snowman
* had a massive snowball fight in a public street
* pushed each other over in the snow

It was great. There's nothing like hitting someone in the face with a snowball when he's trying to email his team on his BlackBerry.

 ;D ;D
