Finally we have some proper snow in Cornwall… It’s been about 5 years in the making, but today the weather let rip and gave us a good dousing of the cold white flakes.
As per usual, as soon as the first flakes fall they shortcircuit everyone’s driving ability and we have major gridlock everywhere with my lovely lady taking nearly an hour to travel between Pool & Redruth… 
To avoid the prospect of trying to get down then back up two notorious hills, even she had to leave the car a few minutes away from home, but good job too because anyone else who ventured further would have had to abandon their no-longer trusty steeds to fate, sledgers and idiots who think that because they have a Scooby, they can drive like Colin Macrae. This idiot could not even go 10mph without hitting 2 cars, even when the smarter kids on the street suggested he give up. Anyway, he distracted our community copper long enough for the kids to start bombing down the hill again!
Check out some pics of the new craze that’s hopefully not sweeping too hard, but skimming down a hill near you. I would have joined in but I did not have anything slidey that…
a) …belonged to my grandad/older brother/Cormac
b) …I cared about too little not to trash - my sponge.
And, contrary to popular current opinion, a bin lid doth not a slidey thing make…
