so when is it going to snow?

More importantly when's it going to snow in North Essex? I'm moving house at some point over the next month, so it's bound to be then! 07 Defender 90 TDCI

This was last year in the village High street, it was all going so well till I reached about 25mph and the sledge overtook the Landy, the kids loved it... 07 Defender 90 TDCI

Love just roaming around seeing all the other landy drivers making any excuse to go driving around in the snow too!

Just like when the floods are around and you just know that every landy driver finds some reason that they HAVE to go drive down that flooded road! Cheers, David

Be carful what you wish for! If we had temps that low we probably wouldn't get the Defenders to even start without a big amount of fading about.
Unless you've got such luxuries of heated garages etc. KEEP CALM AND Drill ON

Then complain when they find lots of rust developing,

I can see the farmers point! Every year when it gets icy or snows there is a piece of road with an odd right hand bend with an 8 foot drop on the left hand side, the corner is gentle then turns sharply right. Almost every plonker goes around it so quick they end up taking half the hedge out. If it doesnt start or too bad to drive they park it in the field even if we have any horses in their! Then the sports cars that think they can go drifting down the road almost every time hitting someone coming the other way!

I do make a bit of cash though towing stuck vehicles that pass through. Hehe
