Some eejit on the Beeb said a few days ago that Spring had sprung despite the fact that I've got 2 feet of snow outside my house some of which has been there since 19th December and it was -10 last night.
Do you think that running the Traveller outside my garage every morning to warm her up is causing it (global warming that is) :wink:

£23 an hour for sliding around in a big fridge wow you must be keen Kevin. It'd be cheaper to drive up here for the weekend :)
All joking apart I've never seen the skiing like this for years, if ever, and more snow forecast for Thursday :D :D :D

Just an aside the longest run on Cairngorm is 3 miles - a bit longer than 160m
