This years weather and a diatribe to city councils everywhere.

Ok, I'm not the first and obviously will not be the last to have commented on this, but does anyone else believe that a pack of hyenas could run the country better than the current powers that be?? No? Well you were apparently not the ones stuck in various airports, roads, country pubs, houses, pathways, ditches and other sundry places where you wouldn't want to be stuck in the snow. We had a month or more of winter warnings and where were the gritters? Well they hadn't been sent out....because they hadn't been told to. So we can't really blame the men that drive the machines.

It's a vicious circle I know: The upper management are tucked away in nice cosey houses and don't give out proper instructions. The drivers have no say because if they were to use some initiative and someone gets hurt then they will have been blamed and so nothing gets done. They get it in the ear the nation comes to a standstill and we're again the laughing stock of Europe (big surprise there) all because of health and safety (very likely)

So there's my little winter rant. I have pictures that I've been taking over the last month, I'll put them up as soon as possible. So get ready for visions of a Gothic winter wonderland, icicles and myself one step away from Cryostatic suspension (that's a human lollipop to those of a non scientific persuasion)

Back soon
