I just saw a member of the rare species road gritter, if that's the correct term.
Thought I'd pop out for a pint, mind you the conditions underfoot made a 5-minute journey into a 15-minute one.
But it was kind of worth it.
Nice pint, warm pub, got a chance to read the paper in peace and the sighting of the elusive gritter brought hope for the future.
Mind you the journey back was only slightly better - the rain was getting rid of the snow.
Just can't wait to tomorrow - might need to dig out the old hockey skates if the temperature predictions are right.
