Prophylactic pair of snow chains arrived from Ebay this morning. Bring it on! 8-)

Did you get the £30 ones? If so... How do they look?

Yep. From user "carracks".

Haven't tried them for size yet but they look OK as a "chuck them in the boot just in case" measure.

`Been out snow-clearing and testing the driveway this morning......-10C. temps.; so I thought it prudent to use the Disco for the 'will she make it up the hill' test. ;)

The snow is the dry-powder type; so if the winds get up, it`ll really drift. :'(

... Although if it's anything like february I can't see myself bothering.

Yes Kevin, the railway footplate staff rightly always called the journey from Winchester to Alton "going over the Alps", for reasons of gradient, but also for the other one which you get where you live!! :D :D :D ;)

Of course. :y I will try to find the decent version that has been photoshopped. It was on the watercress line web site for a while. Think they've re-vamped it since though.
