Trialists in the Snow

I will own up, I`m stuck at home in Somerset because I cannot drive to work. Hot drink, food, phone, blanket, tow rope, shovel, warm cloths and off up the A303. Followed the snow plough so if any one wants some Salt its in my radiator ! Road blocked which ever way I tried - claim a bulk - HGV waggons sideways on all the roads up over Salisbury plain. Please don`t phone asking why I of all people did not get to work - I`v had it all morning. Hope you all fair better and take care, no marshals to push you out.

  2. ive been using my trials 205 all week instead of the regular road car, it seems to be coping rather well so far! Heading to the Forest of Dean tonight to watch the Wyedean Forest Rally tomorrow, emergency kit packed and ready to go...

  8. In the Cotswold Hills we've had great fun playing in the snow. The only problem has been the number of idiots who drive around with just a small patch of snow cleared from their windscreen and then drive too fast (or slow) in inappropriate places.
    Bet you've all seen them?

  9. The beetle had to come to the rescue on Monday couldny get the Merc Auto off the drive, delivered children to Parents as school shut and dropped wife to work no problem even with a badly bent front axle from the clouds, mad that a 40 year old car can still go anywhere better than a brand new one!!
