Had a lovely time, I even went to Aldi (usually a no-go zone on a Saturday) as the carparks were virtually empty.

Had it in 4wd for all of 5 feet, didn't need that much, but I thought "Why wheelspin it out when I can simply drive the front axle?"

So how come BMWs get stuck all the time? I'm rear wheel drive just like them, but the only electronic driver aid I have is the windscreen wipers :laugh:

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

Apart from tyres and ground clearance maybe it is torque.
So nice to have a car park all to yourself innit. And the roads too!!!!!

Do it right - use Hammerite
When the blue light is flashing I am kidding.

I don't understand the panic buying thing. As a rule we go shopping once a week, and I imagine most people are the same? Even at the end of the week we still have plenty of non-perishable food left- probably enough for a couple of weeks if we ate everything in the cupboards. Again, I imagine most people's cupboards are the same? Yet 3 days of inclement weather means people need to buy 3 weeks supply of everything... Even now, when the roads here in Norfolk have been clear for at least 2 days there's no bread in our 2 local supermarkets.
