Its just ridiculous here now. The village front street is practicaly unpassible.
Vertualy everyone who is trying to get through the village is getting stuck, fools....
I'm meant to be on night shift tonight but thats not going to happen. Thats the 4th shift in a row I've missed now :(
Village front street
I wish it was that little here on the main road. I have spent 8 hours solid moving snow just to get the car to the main road as it kept getting beached and will not grip until it hits tarmac. I had to dig tracks all the way to the tarmac and stop every foot to clear the pile of snow in front of the car. I went back to try and get our other cars out and i was back to square one as it had snowed so much all day. I give up...
Northumberland is gritting and there snow plows are set to 5mm off the tarmac. Durhams either are just driving round or they are set so high its doing next to nothing for cars as everyone i have spoke too said the car were bottoming out. If you come along the A1 its fine until you get to the county Durham area were its white. Durham county are taking the piss.
Oh and in those 8 hours i spent more or less at the road side i did not see one gritter, or any snow plow doing anything.
