Pedlad is quiet. Do you think he's stuck in a ditch somewhere in the wrong car?

Since we had a touch of snow in the Eden Valley today I can report on my current treads: L200 on Cooper Discovery A/T3s. Popped it into 4 wheel drive and had no problems other than one wee sideways slide when I had to take evasive action.

M&S Rated, but not an actual snow/winter tyre.

Absolutely recommend them for other pickup drivers - they are better all rounders than the usual suspects!

Back home in time for an icy ride on the hills tonight. Took the Astra but really didn't need to for the amount of snow that was in leeds when I woke up first thing. A bit more as leaving Huddersfield later this afternoon but as mentioned in op Bloomin forecasters and media trying to put the scares on us when it's just pretty normal winter weather.

Astra! You fool! I thought we'd all decided on the Unicycle with racing slicks?

Don't ask questions if you're not prepared to follow the advice of the masses!
