Are you snowed in?

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
I am!

I live at the bottom of one the valleys in Wales, I'm as far close to civilization as you can get from the valleys and even I am stuck here now.

I ventured out this morning up to one of the far back valleys to get something from the post office and nearly got stuck with my car not moving up a hill for ages lol..

Then when I returned home I was stuck at the bottom of my street for a few seconds trying to get the car to move.. its bad stuff!! It's still bucketing down as well.

Anyone want any pics? lol

My snowed in activities this week have been watching kids DVDs (Sharks Tale - awesome!!) and playing games with the baby - anyone been doing anything exciting?

    I was tempted to try and claim that this morning, but I don't think my boss would have believed me.

    I was delayed for my lecture because of the snow yesterday, I had to go back home and put a hat and different shoes on.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru

    Trudged my way through the snow to uni and as I got there they were closing it *fuming*

    Cheese on toast where do you live? My boyfriend got sent home from work in Merthyr because the snow is bad. He got the train home with no problems but some people who tried to drive home had to abandon their cars!!

    It hasn't been snowing for a few hours and I reckon if I can get out of the street I should be fine on the main roads...

    I'm going to try and venture out later anyway!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Suppose I cant be snowed in when there hasn't even been any snow in my town!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru

  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    not much snow but a really hard frost which turned the roads/pavements into a sheet of solid ice, as per usual i went on my ass at the top of a hill walking home last night and slid the WHOLE way down (a good 200 yards) on my arse :(
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    IU've got a horrible feeling that's what outside is like now, hope its not too bad to drive, I'm going for a pint with one of my best muckers!!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru

  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Not snowed in (yet) but WOOHOOO!! ITS SNOWING HERE LOADS!!! :D:D
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I got snowed in over Christmas! We had 3-4 foot of snow :yes:

    Airport was closed for 2 days cos of the snow & then when it re-opened, me & some mates sat there for THIRTEEN hours waiting for a flight home :(

    Got home in time for Christmas though :) & then pretty much slept through it cos I was so jet-lagged, lol.

    Snow's not so bad now though, only a few inches. Tons of ice though :( evil ice.

    But going skiing this weekend so yay! :yippe:
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru

    Shark Tale is pretty good, I agree.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru

    haha I'm down in Thomastown - I'm from Llanharan originally though!

    You're far to close for comfort :p

    The plan to get out tonight got fucked up, I got in my car and am driving up the road and my fucking tyre was flat, proper flat!!!!!

    I got to the garage but it wont hold any air, and my spare is a different size so basically un-usable!!

    Had to stay in the with the missus, I had a barney with her earlier which is why I was going out so now I've had to make up prematurely and order a chinese to keep myself happy! lol:yum:
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    which chinese did you order from? i wanted a lu's but didnt want to risk trying to drive it....and your close to a pub in thomastown if you want to walk :p if fagins is your thing that is..
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Yup I live right by Fagins ;)

    I ordered from Jade Gardens in Talbot Green - They are the bollockssssssssss!

    Also if you fancy an Indian, Chowdry's Palace down in Talbot Green are awesome too!!!!

    It's going to be here in half an hour, yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.:heart:
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
