I don't know what the problem was, i found it easy getting home, driving through the country lanes with the snow falling, it was lovely.





Oh yep in a Suzuki Grand Vitara in Low 4 wheel Drive mode. :twisted:

Well, I was ok in my Jeep. Thought I would not go up the little hilly lane to Farnborough, but kept to main roads, Along the lower road I could hardly see where I was going because of the blizzard................................same up the main road

Saw a Landrover on the back of a truck this morning, looked like it had hit a lamp post - very hard  :o

V shaped dent right through the middle of the bonnet - Oh dear  :(

I thought the meeting was great fun and pleased everyone above (and I hope all others too ) made it home safely. I would like to add my thanks to Tony for setting the quiz

Gladys and I eventually made it back to Sevenoaks. Having snowballs lobbed at the car near Knockholt station wasn't much fun and decending Polhill was interesting! My scariest drive ever! I abandoned the car at Gladys' house and walked back up the hill to dig it out at lunchtime!

    If the Fuel is not a factor

    Get yourself a Chelsea Tractor

    Driving in the snow is funny,

    I`ll get there so what`s the hurry??

    Two wheel drive is not so clever

    in this awful, pretty weather.   :twisted:
Always look on the bright side of life ...

Yes a very enjoyable evening.  Thanks for the quiz Tony.   I was wondering about you Sue having to drive to Sevenoaks - glad you made it in one piece!

Carole
