snow fun

Post by sonic23 »

Well i must say that was great fun this morning...didn't get to work till 10am, as i took a rather convoluted way that involved lots of steep hills and open flat spaces <cough>

The Discovery ATs are rather good in the white stuff. 8)

B&$$er all in Cornwall - just more miserable grey skies and rain. Still, the weekend is looking better and we are going for a night away to a wild spot to test the new Propex that's just been fitted! Can't wait :D

we´ve been promised nothing above freezing over here for the next two months so im thinking of investing in a set of winter tyres, i have been really impressed with my AT´s but i just took them off and put some old standard size winter tyres on so i could sell the van and they are fantastic,
highly recomended :ok

After working til 2pm in horizontal snow, felling, burning and sawing we were given an early knock off due to adverse weather conditions on the roads! I spied my chance and stayed behind to play on the virgin snow carparks and inclines :D
