Daihatsu On Ice
Bush Tucker Man:
We had a trip into the northern fringes of Derbyshire this morning looking for snow.Sadly the lanes I were on last Thursday have all been ploughed by the Council (or more likely local farmers)
See my pictures & posting about half-way down This Page
So on we went to WoodHead Pass (the A628), that was fine on the road itself.
Over Holme-Moss (A6024) as I'd heard that Radio 2 traffic reports had stated it was closed at about 08:30.
So what can you do?? :wink:
On the top is the BBC radio & TV repeater for West/South Yorkshire & parts of Derbyshire.
There was someone with a VW Golf estate digging out of the BBC entrance road (I gave him a tug out)
Then about 20 yards up the drive was a FourTrack belonging (so the Golf driver said) a BBC engineer.
He'd come on Sunday(?) night to check out something & got so far & no further.
The snow was around 2foot deep around him, with the further fall.
Then to top it all there was a 7tonner stuck on the north side who'd burnt his clutch out :roll:
Aren't we blessed??

The temperature was climbing as it was around noon, must've been about 2degrees 'C'
It had probably had several snow/freeze/thaw cycles as it had been there a while.
You could see mounds around it where the snow had dropped off

:lol: :lol: :lol: Seem a few like that before on 'Police, Camera. Action!', etc...
Still, it's not as funny as that Aussie(?) bus driver who got his arm stuck in the door & it rolled away

I know we all look the same to you Landy people, but that "Fourtrak" is a Sportrak. A sort of Defender/Freelander situation.
