My sister lives in Oxfordshire - cant dig her car out of the garage - been like that for a week. The snow that fell before Christmas, she had to abandon her car for a night, and sleep in the doctors surgery where she works.
My daughter in law is living in Portsmouth. Yesterday she had to get pushed out on to the road - got to the shops, and they had run out of most of the basics - no bread, fresh milk, meat,
spuds etc etc
Yes its bad:eyepop:
Wish I was there:)

We have just farewelled back to Cornwall in the UK my brother in law and his wife. They were complaining about the heat in Sydney during their stay here. Somehow I think they will now see things in some perspective....
