Roads here are terrible, ice cream vans everywhere, people flooding to the beach, mid to high 80's, just shocking. Hope that helps.

I've missed work cause of the snow and told I could get disciplined, its wrong though I live 8 miles away and I'm on a scooter, does anyone know if we have rights as workers?

Yes, thanks to the EU, you bloody workers have more than enough rights.

Just seen snow and ice in Stoke on the national news. Is the traffic moving okay now? Gotta come from Yorkshire tomorrow and wondering if I need to allow more time?

I travelled from Stoke to Leek at 8.30 this morning and it probably took about 5 minutes longer than normal. Admittedly all of the schools deciding to take an extra holiday helped out a bit.

I see that Ipstones has been bad but is clearing now. Used to live in dear old Ippy but it was before postcodes were invented so don't know if that's ST10 or somewhere else.
Thanks for the information anyway lads. May leave a bit earlier in the morning just in case

Does anyone know if the binmen are working today, or has every public sector worker taken today off?

Thanks for the information anyway lads. May leave a bit earlier in the morning just in case Ipstones is just outside ST10 in ST13 I think..or its the other way round ;-) Had plenty of light dry snow but nothing too worry about.

Only took me 20 mins extra get from fenton to prestbury at 7 this morning. And that was only because of idiots doing 20mph on a clear main road.

Very cold here tonight. The wind was that strong that I was forced to get me vests in that we're hanging up the entry before they started to freeze. I've now put them on the rack to air over night as my black bitch tends to make a nest with them if I leave them by the grate.

What are the roads in stoke like I'm working in prestbury and it's been relentless here for 3 hours I was also working in Prestbury on the 29th the snow was bad. Travel was made worse by abandoned 4 wheel drive vehicles. I commented on this to a local resident who was clearing snow from his drive. He said well that one there has been left by some bloody Brazilian footballer's wife. She had the bloody cheek to ask me to give her a lift home. I told her to fuck off. I am thinking of started a campaign to rid the village of them. I asked what four wheel drive vehicles? He replied no bloody footballers
