The weekend has almost ended

I’ve coughed and sneezed so much this weekend that I think I’ve pulled a muscle. Or trapped a nerve. Or pulled a nerve and trapped a muscle.

Anyway.

We cleared the cars of snow this afternoon; between 6″-8″. Not a lot in global terms, but for West Oxfordshire, far more than usual.

‘Big up’ to West Oxfordshire Council and Oxfordshire County Council for gritting and clearing the roads.

Not!

Anyway, on Saturday Soph and I walked in to Witney. As a result of that brief but arduous trek I’ve put together this little 1m 8s video:

Don’t people know that they are supposed to have headlights on dip in snow conditions?

Don’t people know that they are supposed to clear all car windows, not just the ones they think they’re going to use today?

Don’t people know that they are supposed to clear all snow off the roof of their car before they commence their journey?

Apparently not.

  1. Having grown up in the great plains of the USA, I can testify that people who live with snow every day of the winter are no less stupid.

    The ice-covered windscreen with a peep-hole is de riguer, as are bald tires and dark headlamps.

  2. Allister, so right.

    Bulldog, it ain’t right. It just ain’t right.

    Matty B, and that’s why I can’t accept your Facebook friend request. Soz, but my daughter reads that.

  3. Such a lovely area. In those first shots it was so hard to see the road it appeared the cars were just driving randomly across the scene!
