The Great British Weather

The real eye opener for me up here. Is how nearly an entire city full of very experianced winter drivers, will leave their cars at home. If winter comes early and they havent changed their tyres.

(We did'nt use our car for 10 days this Autumm, as it was at the top of our driveway with summer tyres on, and I needed the early snow to clear so I could drive to flat ground.)

I'm usually proud of the british 'carry on regardless' attitude. But sometimes its just naive.

it's a legal requrement to change to winter tyres in a lot of eurpoe isn't it? certainly is in germany anyway.

beautiful if ear-slittingly freezing morning this morning. longjohns under jeans ftw!
