How cold? It's 45 degrees out there damn it, and I've got no time.How cold is it where you are
I agree,my driveway has been covered in sheet ice since Tuesday & cos of the angle of the drive I can't get my car out,I don't want to pour hot water over the drive as it would make it worse if that froze over & cos I'm in a ground floor flat the driveway is the only way in or out of my place.Kanta wrote:The weather forecast says it's -1°C, here.

It was on our local news the other day about Royal Mail (postal service) asking homeowners not to pour hot water onto cars or driveways/pathways on there property as the water would freeze to become black ice and could cause the postman to slip. Screw you Royal chuffing Mail. Our home, our decision. You have messed up this year agian with your shoddy services and increase in postal stamps, dont think you can tell us what we can and cannot do.Adam wrote:I agree,my driveway has been covered in sheet ice since Tuesday & cos of the angle of the drive I can't get my car out,I don't want to pour hot water over the drive as it would make it worse if that froze over & cos I'm in a ground floor flat the driveway is the only way in or out of my place.Kanta wrote:The weather forecast says it's -1°C, here.

My road and the pavements have not been gritted,an accident waiting to happen,was a near miss Weds night when a car spun & just missed a parked car.
We haven't had any snow,but freak hail showers some of which has not thawed in 2 days & have had a spate of accidents in Cornwall,including a coach that overturned killing 2 and injuring 47,the first cop car on the scene spun off the road & hit the coach.
Let's enjoy it while we can.Adam wrote:Can't beleive after the freezing weather last week it's 10 degrees and sunny !
