Find an Impreza Sport,
Remove Bonnet,
Take to top of hill,
Check for presence of snow,
Climb on.
Repeat steps 1-5 then check yellow pages for good panel beater.

Go to Toys R Us and buy yourself a "Skid Kid" Its a fancy version of a bin lid but its great fun. Bought one when I was up in Aviemore at new year, best fun I've had in ages, shootin down a hill with no control whatsoever, as someone said earlier " a bit like the scoob in the snow" Lol.

Ps they are only about a tenner

Cool

According to R5 live it should hit my area around 03:00hrs, assuming the weather ******* get it right.

I have recced a suitable hill and will be making a sledging purchase - as long as it snows like a b@stard!
