No chance of taking the train?  A lot less hassle (assuming you don't get the same driver that was in Chester the other day)

Got mine from eBay, good quality for the price (until it snaps it half when it's really needed).

You can't buy one :signLOL:……..they were sold as a two pack, think they were on offer at 15.99 incl Vat

Link to American site but the product is the same http://www.costco.com/2-pack-Lifeline-Utility-Shovels-.product.11618660.html

My winter survival kit includes...

winter tyres and 4motion  :evilgrin:

I also have in the boot, a thermal hi-viz jacket and a 'safety kit' which was supplied by my previous dealer (free) which contains hiviz vest, gloves, light stick, first aid kit, fire extinguisher and a foil blanket.
