^^^Good. People don't think about the snow on the room and how it can fall off in chunks into the path of the cars behind them.

I saw muppets with headlights on but snow covering them. I saw cars similar to the audi with just the windscreen cleared. These people are dangerous in snow. God knows what they're like in normal driving conditions.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

....In my opinion, good photography isn't always about pristine pin-sharp perfection.

We've got more light snow coming down in my part of Lancashire today :jumpmove:, its been fairly steady since I dropped 'junior' at school, with more forecast for Friday :pomppomp:
The school have been quite 'cool' about the snow all week, they've let the kids bring sledges, to sledge down the hill towards the playground (it must be like ten pin bowling) they've also made a 'snow family' (PC) an igloo & let them make and throw snow balls - thankfully the H&S lot :mad: haven't spoilt it for these primary school kids

Some light snow has started to fall in central London. Doesn't look like it will settle though.
