Default More UK silliness

Quite frankly Simon, I saw the same thing. Nothing more than a bunch of
tarts who just didn't have a clue.

Well, the media is still on about the big freeze and the chaos it
brought to the country.

One part of the Midlands had people abandoning their cars overnight. It
was interesting watching some of the people picking their cars up in the
morning wheelspinning all over the place when there was no need.

Must be that we have been so snow starved in this country the last few
years that people these days just don't know how to drive a car in such
conditions. Maybe there should be a new law banning people who learnt
to drive after the last 'big freeze' from driving through these
conditions. Gridlock on a road with only a cm of snow is stupid. There
may well be ice, but sensible driving helps!
