I share that pain, It took me 5 hours to get from Caerleon to Bassaleg.

What is this country coming to?

Give it a decade or so and we will be back to living in tribes at this rate of decline.

Anybody see any snow ploughs?

Me neither.

I think I had better click on "submit reply" before I really start to rant.

I saw a Plow this afternoon outside my house, bit late as everyone had abandoned their cars on the side of the road! I finally got the call to go home after failing to get out of Barry for about an hour!

Sorry to hear about your bro's Mixxer there's lots of crashed cars about!

Been out in the old dears 4x4 with winter tyres!!! had them fitted just before the snow came, fan-bloody-tastic.

My transit van ain't going anywhere fast with the snow we've got down this way. most roads are clear but others are a nogo even with the snow chains on and guess which roads the work is located down??

We prepared this year (Winter tyres and snow chains), money we'll spent

Well I would like to thank caerphilly Council for keeping the mountain road open . Sadly you get to the hairpin by the Travellers Rest and the Cardiff side is fecking rubbish. I'll ask can I transfer my Council Tax to Caerphilly.

Came past the long line of traffic trying to get up Nantgarw Hill yesterday, I feel your pain. It must have been the mad panic to get home early.
