What a nightmare for him Mo.

At least he got home safe (eventually), that's the main thing.

Morning all.
Well my son managed to get home at 12.30 a.m. He and a work colleague, both had to abandon their cars, luckily the three of them left in convoy,and the boss bought them home.
But considering they left at 3.00 p.m yesterday afternoon, it was a nightmare.
Shelly and Maddie you will probably know where they had to abandon the cars, it was over by Shooters Hill, going towards Black Heath.

Marilyn, Gatwick airport is closed today, I just hope your flight home does not cause you problems.

Well folks, from one bored housebound person to you's others, keep smiling, it can't last forever.

Morning from a freezing north London.

I sent the photos to Pauline. My sons bedroom is right at the top of a four storey house. So yes, very high up. On 5th November and 1st January we all pile up there and watch the fireworks from the Thames. Saves us going out and coming home in the cold. It is very bleak here. More snow expected today apparently.

Yes please Stephen. Neil Oliver served up on toast this morning would be lovely. Just give his hair a bit of a comb before you do.

Hope everyone is well and warm.

See you later all.

Morning everyone,
Still no snow down here in cold Exeter. I've been a member of GR since May last year.
I'm sat at my desk waiting to start work in a mo.
It's playtime at 1.00.
Fried brekkie. That sounds nice. In my dreams!

About time you turned up Stephen, that bacon smells nice.

Be careful out there.

Tea or Coffee

Porridge, Cereals, Hot Bacon Rolls.

\_/ A wee Malt whisky for me or anyone else that needs one.

Who the 'H' Whoooooossssssssshhhhheeeeeeddddddd all the snow back to me ?

Been out since before 6am digging away at all the new fallen snow.

Although it's a real nuisance the beauty of it all never fails to amaze me.

It was sparkling like millions of diamonds in the faint moonlight. Lovely.

Mo. I hope your son was suitably prepared for being stranded. And that he managed to get home eventually.

Pauline.......one of many......never........would I two time any of you ? ROFL

Heading off fairly soon once full daylight arrives.

BUS PASS..........Whats that ? Loads of buses pass me.

Our cars are coping well with this weather. I always give them a full service
toward the end of October in preparation for the Winter. Anti Freeze levels have to be high to cope with our very low temperatures at times.

Marilyn did a runner on me last night and Mrs Stephen called me home for my supper at the same time. Just when things were getting exciting.

Ah well......some you win.....some you lose.

Hope you manage to cope with another day stuck indoors Pauline. What other option do you have ? None. Although you are well experienced it certainly won't get any easier for you.

Hey Ho......off I go.

Have a good day ya all !

Errrr, where's the chef this morning?

No sign of Jean either, I hope you had a good sleep Jean.



Edit: Are you all still in bed?

Come on, get up and clear the snow away, it ain't going to melt.

I would sing to wake you all up but GR took my musical notes away.

Rita, is there any word yet about your granddaughter? I hope she'll be OK.

Maddie, those photos looked really cold even though the snow wasn't that deep. Are you sure you were in your son's bedroom when you took them? Seemed like you'd taken them from the roof.

Linda, it's awful to lose family members, so sad that they're so far away as well.

I feel sorry for little M, she should have been with her parents on her birthday and now when she's poorly. Shelly's right though, I'm glad she's got you to give her the love she needs. Give her an extra cuddle from me.

Morning all.

Marilyn, when you get back you can sort your name out, the heat over there must be affecting it.

Hello Pat, welcome to the thread, I'm Pauline.........one of Stephen's many wives by the looks of it.

Dermot, did you get your bus pass? I didn't!!

Mo, did your son get home OK? You must have been worried sick about him. How will he get his car back?

Hi Patricia, I'm Mo another nutter on here, welcome to our little mad house.
It's our husband by proxy thats made us all like this, his names Stephen,
he's as mad a bag of spanners, but is a real gent.

Further update on my son, they are still not home. J abandoned his car on a hill,as it would not go up or down.
At the moment they are trying to find a clear road home between Orpington
and Sevenoaks,and no matter which way they go, the roads are impassable.
I don't even know if they have got emergency supplies in the car.
Why is it we never stop worrying about our kids, no matter what age they are.
