Then this morning we speed off to IKEA in wembley, quickest journey there ever and the place was almost empty not the packed stress it usually is, however.. we get out to almost not find the car it was so snowed in then I think how the f*ck we are gonna get home the same day.. totally ungritted roads were hell to drive, the news said the whole of brent cross shopping centre was shut down for the day due to the dangerous conditions, we saw 4x4s doing 360s on roundabouts and HGVs that just couldn’t make it up slight inclines on the north circular, driving  along in a soup of black ice at dead slow all the way hoping to get home without a bang, then couldn’t get the car on the drive without clearing the 6 inches of snow out the way first, certainly one of my toughest driving experiences ever along with the singletrack offroad in March thanks to tomtom, that was strictly for horses and motorbikes, fingers crossed the boiler does it’s magic and the snow disappears soon. It’s just madness…
