I love this weather, I'm like a big kid in the winter.

I was one of those idiots who decided to go to work today.

First of all got stuck on the A34, luckily after 10 minutes few guys helped me out. Then at our business park I got stuck again so I abandoned my car.

FWD cars are fine driving around but mine is p*** poor I wish I still had my Evo for this weather!
