Whats the point in having a decent 4x4 when theres thounds of people in cars and not decent 4x4s stuck in front of you, i say ban cars on snow days and no work for everyone.



Merry Xmas


My 8 year old daughter was out making snowmen at 7am today and then came running in to tell us that our neighbour's Jeep (Cherokee) was stuck. I should have offered him a tow out with the 110 ;-)

(To be honest I've no idea how he managed to get stuck, even normal cars were copeing).

AC.

Oh, how satisfying :-)

How mortifying, poor Jeep being stuck with such a crap driver.

Merry Christmas to all on here from me also. :-)

I rather like the word. 'Thounds'. Wonder how I can use it?

Merry Christmas to all from New Orleans!

Funny!

Merry Christmas all round peeps!

For those of you that haven't already seen it, here's how not to tow a car in snow.

Plus the classic bumper cars on ice.

Merry Christmas to all from the decidedly un-snowy Southern colonies.

Some days I sure wish it would snow here. 40deg+ days with 70-80% odd humidity sure is a bugger when you're trying to work under a customer's hot Land Rover.

Merry Christmas and stuff from me over here in the Penal Colonies... (read: very Sunny Queensland, Australia.)

I will drink to that !

At least you can feel your bl**dy fingers, which is more than I can at the moment!

Gordon, snowed under in Kent.

I put my slightly ailing Defender into a dealer I've never tried before for some work, put it in on November 9th, straight afterwards we had torrential rain for weeks while I only had a small leaky sports car to drive around in. Now we're forecast for icy conditions and the Landy is still at the garage, for a month and a third now, different garage mind, given the total incompetence and pathetic excuse-making of the first. Had to resort to court threats and taking it elsewhere. Still don't have it back yet!

Bad news Lee - I currently have 2 running landrovers. It is not going to snow round here this year! ;)

How odd... the message hasn't indented?

If they disappear I may have accidentally impounded them ;0) It will of course be an admin blunder and Snow will be assured :0)

You never know it could just be that Two running Landies cancel themselves out..

SNOW SNOW SNOW SNOW SNOW :o)
