Had a light dusting overnight, but it's not snowing here at the mo (East Lancs).
The forecast says that snow is on its way, so I'm having a day off .... I'm a window cleaner !!!!
Even though I don't drive this is seriously going to ruin my plans for today. It's tipping it down with snow and every 15 minutes another bus is cancelled. Today out of all days :(
Well I live in Sheffield (well on the outskirts) as tha knows and all my buses that I can catch from Sheffield centre are kaput. Looks like if I can get into Sheffield I will be walking it the rest of the way. Not happy!
So to speak on behalf of the bus drivers I'd probably say; It's nice to clock off early but the morning shift was terrible, having to listen to be winging and moaning about how they had to walk an extra 25 metres from where I should of stopped my bus (in a great big ditch of snow that would get me stuck).
Ric.ror: I'm going to be prepared also to have to walk 14 miles back home. It's not catching me out! Well it probably will as I'll end up frozen stuck to a bush or something but it will be comical non the less.
We've had about a foot of snow since 6 am. I was reading on another post that someone else (self employed) had a nightmare in Sheffield and that was hours ago - it's been snowing constantly since.
Well things have changed a bit since I posted at 08:34.It's now snowing quite heavily and it's settling we've got about an 1" at the moment.Trish sent me up to Tesco to get some extra milk and bread and one off the check out girls who comes from Whitwell,about 15 miles away was finishing early because her husband had phoned up to tell her that it was almost a blizzard there,getting worse and moving our way.
