The pics are taken down the road from our place whilst we were out for a walk. We don't live that far down the road, so don't ever have to drive up and down that hill If you look in pic 2, just above the post box you can see the gates through to a public footpath that takes you up to Kenley Common/Aerodrome (pics 4 & 6), where they still run Gliders but was an Air Base in WWII

We've got lovely white scenery around here and I was going to take some photos but a grit wagon has made it's way past us and now the road is all shitty. It looks like a dirty skid-mark up the back of a pair of lovely white undies.

Nah (its rare i say it with road offences but...) I agree with the coppers on this one, something like a foot of snow over a couple of square meters thats falls from your roof is well dangerous for yourself and for people behind you. you might not like to think the plod will fine you for it, but youd be pissed off if you were biking along and some git in front had a foot thick sheet of solidified now/ice slide off in front of you... As for the idiots that drive with a letter box of vision, theyre idiots who should leave 5mins earlier, warm their car up and be less selfish. There are other drivers out there. We all know the 'Sorry I didnt see you!' isnt much help when youre in hospital or worse. Selfish idiots...
