Clears my 200 yard drive in about 15 mins! Bloody ace it is.

Sounds like London is a mess!

Hi Schnorbitz..............that is a mean looking bit of machinery.

Have you ever got anything other than snow caught in its jaws ?

Not only is London a mess it will be under water in the next few hundred years so we might need to close our border but we'll all be or by then...or perhaps so nothing to worry about

Schnorbitz, you would have been able to sell quite a few of those here this week. No doubt 'elf and safety would outlaw it.
So far our council does not seem to have done anything about clearing the snow, which is now 3+" undulating sheet ice on the well walked pavements (sorry sidewalks!), think we have slid (oops) a bit beyond the help of your mean machine

No need to wait that long, give it a week and we'll be flooded when this lot melts

The majority of my driveway is stone/gravel so if the snow base isn't solid enough I have to make sure I point the spout away from the neighbors window!

Hope things get back to some semblance of normality soon!

The thing we have to be careful of is lunatics in big trucks who think that 4wd will help you to stop quicker. Loons!

I'm sure that 'when I was a lad' the country could cope with snow!
