Vulcan B2 Â Â 10 #301 Posted January 5, 2010 I live in S14 also, near the top of blackstock, and our side road has not been gritted at all, but the main roads were all gritted overnight. The gritters couldn't have possibly done all the side roads, but kept the main roads open. Good work lads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

raizuli3 Â Â 12 #312 Posted January 5, 2010 i apologize Bruno, i shouldn't have gone off on one, but when you have been out in it all day & had to contend with numpties that can't drive, but think they can, you tend to get a bit frazzled..........
