ajax_andy 0 Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Fuck me what a nightmare. First had to dig out my car and then wor lasses car so I could use hers for work (4x4). Then set off 30mins late and stanley was at a standstill right down to chester le street to the A1. So, I went another way through Causey Arch to Sunniside but same there with a lane being closed on Lobley Hill to the A1 etc. Gave up and working from home! So, thankfully having her car I went down the back roads from causey arch to Beamish and back here. In all, about 2 hours to go 5-6 mile. Yeah woman at my work just tried to get to town from stanley and it took her 3 hours! Nightmare! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeazesMag 0 Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Weather forecasters say snow should start at about 11pm tonight leaving at least 2 inches by the morning. You have been warned.... Get the earlier bus, if driving set offer 30 minutes earlier or better still, leave it to the professionals and get a Taxi Ps For those of you in the South, just run around as though the end is nigh and your the only ones who are ever effected by snow. Feel free to gather round the TV and hear tales of woe on Chelsea high street and the occasional good news story of Miles being able to ski down to the local waitrose. first prediction you ever got right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
