PMSL @ the thread title.
They were gritted this morning mate, as one of the f**kers decided open the gritter when i was driving right by him. Result-Chipped windscreen, and front bumper hammered to fook(looks like its been sand blasted)

The only grit the main few though, A50 and A500

What happened? Accident?

[Mike]

3mph + kerbstone x half lock = snapped shock absorber lol

EDIT: I saw some lovely accidents whilst awaiting recovery though lol

[Adam]

In a sh hitty little side street called Malkin Way, i ski sloped it down a mahooooooosive hill at about 30mph too lol I saw a lovey stacked BMW and a pile up with a TT lol saw a bin truck drifting it large & a curtain sider powersliding lol

[Adam]

Lol, i know where you mean.
Just off the a500 by festival park

I had the same problem on the M69, driveing past a gritter at around 8pm and he opened fire, my gut reaction was to ram him but I don't think it would of had the desired effect. Or maybe ill send them a bill :p

[Adam]

I was going past at about 80mph, so you can imagine the noise the grit made when it smashed off the front end of my car

[General Baxter]

nova or astra lol

[Adam]

Unfortunately the nova :(

[General Baxter]

aha thats ok its only the crappy petrol,

p.s get on msn lol

Feckin shat meself this morning - I live at the bottom of a cul-de-sac at the bottom of a slope. Looked out my window to see 3 cars abandoned in the middle of the road - touching each other - all skewed across the road! Turns out the temp droped so much they SLID from the top of the street right down to the bottom by my drive!

Dropped to minus 11 according to my digital temp gauge on my kitchen window last night!

I was off but spent most of the day in the garage with heater - mmm toasty warm.

Supposed to be minus 7 in Glasgow tonight - feck knows what it'll drop to by us!

[Spudly]

Wow now thats proper cold there ade... ps shoulda gotten pics lol


Make sure your lil nova is well away from the end of the drive then so nothing can slide into it if that happens again!

[AlexW]

Ment to snow tomorrow here, ive already put my nova over my mums and put it under a cover, figured my work van would be better in the snow, if i have to use it that is.

[muzzy]

They were busy gritting the roads that had no snow on them here, but while waiting in traffic :wtf:

Met Office never mentioned any snow forecast for Aberdeen last night but yet i wake up and the place is covered!

Nova is at the mother in laws because its just crap in the snow so im using the Astra again!

[CoupeUK]

Gimme some snow!

[CoolTiger]

woo ice = crashes = me kept in a job :D

[John]

Good old stoke council eh? it took me 1hr 10mins to make a 9 mile journey to work this morning around stoke. Most of lightwood road in longton hadn't been done, meaning fresh snow over ice, not good for the inexperienced!

[brainsnova]

[Sloth]
