	No new snow since Saturday down near this part of Channel coast. Main roads OK, but side roads are mostly untreated and treacherous. Sun shining and thawing compacted snow on pathway, so I've just easily cleared a walk way to the front door. Gwyn

	Thanks Kemp I am sure it wasn't. So thoughtless of people but no doubt they had been driving so long theyw ere exhausted. And I suppose the police couldn't get there anyway. Glad he was safe anyway. My Grandson is due to drive back from Uni in Plymouth this week to hampshire and is already trying to work out the right day. All very well for police to say don't drive unless necessary but they just want to get home for Christmas don't they?

	my son got stuck on M40 yesterday and just got home today He said at about 8pm people were parking on the hard shoulder and bedding down for the night !!! It took him 5 hours to do 13 miles but he kept going and get to a friends for the night . He said it was very dangerouse coz people just stopped and bedded down ignoreing that fact that they were moving be it slow ....... so he said it wasnt just the lorries causing problems

	Gwyn and the annoying thing is that a lot of these road closures have been caused by lorries jacknifing or getting stuck. Maybe they should be told to slow down in bad conditions.
