I think it's better not to drive in this weather. It's bad enough to walk

The dashcam driver's reaction is great in itself. It goes from "Oh no that bus is going to hit that car!", through "THAT BUS IS GOING TO HIT *MY* CAR!!", to "OMG I survived and I'm going to be sick".

Yeah we've been snowed in since Wednesday but caved today and drove down to the nearest town . The main roads were pretty well cleared tbf, but we almost didn't get back up the driveway when we got home and trying to park at the supermarket was a nightmare. We ended up diagonal across two spaces (not that you could see where the spaces even were) but pretty much everyone was the same.

There was no bread or milk at any of our local supermarkets - though at Morrisons you could queue at the bakery where they were baking loaf after loaf fresh and handing them out . We still have plenty of bread stocked up from my heroic trek of foot on Thursday though.

But I had to but UHT milk for coffee... And SKIMMED as well. Literally all they had. Ugh. It's not too bad as a latte I guess.

Really? Wow, some panic buying went on round by you, ridiculous isn't it.
Right now here in West Yorkshire although it is super cold the snow has stopped coming down, just left with icy roads.
I can't wait for the snow to bugger off completely, I hate it, especially when I have to drive in it which really scares me. When it snowed last time I was crawling down a hill really slowly behind a bus, then the bus put his winker on to indicate he was letting someone off so I went to brake (I was quite a distance from the bus) but when I braked the car just kept sliding now, I ended up missing the bus by inches, I was crapping myself, it was awful. I was so relieved to get home. Nope, the snow can do one, it's not welcome to me. Sunshine, now yer talking yeah! Bring on the sunshine.

I think it's better not to drive in this weather. Way too dangerous.
