Woke up looked at my road and was covered no gritter had been down there, also next road was just as bad. But once i got to the main roads in Sevenoaks i was fine all way to East Croydon, so much panic over nothing so far.
Work called me up yesterday and asked if needed, can i stay in the hotel until Thursday? as its supposed to get worse, fingers crossed dont have to but have brought an overnight bag just incase.
Left home this morning, around 4/5 inches of snow on the ground and more still coming down. Driving past Shorne, Gravesend and so on, fields of snow either side of the A2, then got to Dartford area and not so much as a snowflake.
Brilliant sunshine at work now, bloody cold though.

Same thing for me in gravesend. My road looks like a Christmas card. Got round the corner onto a main road & there was absolutely nothing.
All the schools around here are closed though. We really are a soft nation when it comes to snow!
During the Big Freeze of '63 (Boxing Day 1962 through to early March), I did my paper round every morning, went to school each day, the buses ran as did the trains. The milk and coal got through as well.
We've become a bunch of softies, health and safety my ****!
Sex wee by the weather obsessed Daily Express. Living high up in the Surrey hills I need to brave the elements: so I'm going outside, I may be sometime.

Ha ha. Yeah that headline making fella from the Express is probably laying in his garden knocking one out with his mittens on!
Sorry, but some of the jokes on here are more akin with the takeover thread. Please take your smut over there. This is a serious thread for serious people worried about the impending end of the world.
We've had sufficient snow to cover roads and pavements so they all blend into one. In other words no kerbs (or Curbs).
Still coming down steadily. This is Rainham Kent.
For anyone interested I did try to get in yesterday in the end but suffered a sudden engine malfunction on the M2 and could not go faster than 30-40 MPH. A juggernaut nearly drove into my rear! I left at the next available exit and limped to the dealer and left the car there. They still have it....

Just got the log burner on, bowl of porridge and enjoying watching the dog frolic about in the whiteout outside.
And it snowed as well

It hasn't snowed here either.

It's about 3 miles
Long may it continue.
