bigfat_rich   10 #385 Posted December 27, 2014 went out for drive my land cruiser and it was carnage on the roads  - one bloke had got stuck with the back of his car sticking out in the road. Two blokes pushing but getting nowhere  - one woman looking like she was attempting to change a wheel. Again getting nowhere, children crying in car and woman getting hysterical  - two blokes trying to clear the road of snow. Even had to beep them so I could get past.  Carnage I say carnage Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
kidley   48 #386 Posted December 27, 2014 I dont think its the council you need to thank, just that Rotherham didnt actually have much snow. Have they even had the plows out in Sheffield? Pretty suprised at the state of even alot of the major roads not to mention many of the main bus routes.  Must be the budget cuts hitting as it seems like much less has been done this year than in previous years.  Sheffield has had twenty gritting lorry's with ploughs on the front, out all day yesterday before it snowed, and they have been out today, regarding snow ploughing it has been reported on the radio and filmed on television Amey gritting and snow ploughing.

Obelix   11 #391 Posted December 27, 2014 To be fair everyone else drove past  Of course. If someone had stopped and helped she wouldn't be there.  Or is it that you are as bad as her at changing wheels? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
