Had about 5 inches of snow over night here in east london but starting to melt slowly now, just brushed it all off the car so it doesn't refreeze so i'm ready for -5 in the morning at 4.30am  :indifferent: and dug out the wheels so i can get off the kerb  :driver:

^as above about 5" inches here in London too. Wish I stayed at home because now I'm stuck.  According to the weather more snow on it's way for the South tonight and fog.

Still snowing here in Birmingham/Solihull. Cars struggling to get up the road now.

I drove from Oldbury to Solihull and back last night and it took me 3 hours :confused:  Went on the M5/M42 but returned via the Stratford Road and through the city which was a complete nightmare.  The Stratford Road was stationary so I took a short cut through the back roads but even they were gridlocked.  It picked up a bit as I went through the city but then I got held up on the Hagley Road.  Nightmare, cars abandoned all over the place!

^^^I thought about coming off the M42 on to Stratford Rd and glad I kept on for Cov Rd.

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