The snow has become my new worst enemy, Every time I hear "Weather predicts more snow throughout the next week" on the news, I Actualy get angry!, I dont think ive ever been so annoyed at Weather before
I'm not fed up with the snow. I'm just fed up with the half-arsed job the local coonsil's have done keeping the roads clear. Fife council has been truly apalling! Running out of salt!? Och, come on.

Lorry drivers wouldn't be able to do so much with breaks, but I am not if the same regulations apply to council gritters in times of a "civil emergency", well not until there is an accident anyway.
