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)

Well I hate to say it but it was +10 yesterday and the same today, but there again I do live in the soft South as I am often told

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

Well to be honest I didnt actual say that I could ski

or even went sking

just that it is available locally
and at those prices its likely to stay that way.
