A friend of ours posted some pics on facebook at the weekend. The snow had slipped off his roof and taken out roof slates, guttering and the top of his bay window.

the snow had started to melt here, but now it's snowing heavily again today. i can just stay in the house but the tiniest bit of snow here means all the trains get cancelled so i just hope rexclark gets home from work ok. the snow hasn't stopped since i got up this morning, i think it's going to get quite deep again.

Snow has been throwing it down all day here. Buses have all been recalled and my boss still hasn't sent us home. Seems to think this will clear up. Moron.

m8 is closed. roads outside my work are a nightmare. stuck lorry and police directing everything.

we're shit at snow like!

[rachbon]

i don't like snow anymore.

must be at least a foot deep here, and the snow hasn't stopped all day. just been out to the spermarket and the roads are a total mess. cars aren't moving at all, loads of them stuck in the snow. trains and buses are cancelled and motorways are closed.

I might be being thick here, but whats taking so long? Is it accidents and stuff? The news said every motorway in Scotland was the same. Its meant to be very very cold again tonight, which means the roads will ice over even more.

I've changed my mind about it normally being England who can't cope with snow.

It is now everywhere south of Perth that can't seem to cope.

It looked like it snowed a bit today, because the footprints on the drive were slightly covered but it's very cold and the snow that was down was all frozen. My car was making a funny bubbling noise too but then sorted itself out.

Just wish it was summer again, cold weather is a nightmare!!

[lynneyt]

Were you driving?

[saratink]

So my mother just told me, a police man knocked on the door today. Turns out my dad had parked the car on the drive (its a hill drive) and it just slid down the ice and into the middle of the road.

Had to abandon my car in work so was stuck on a bus for about 7 hours, then had to walk the rest of the way

So Central Scotland has ground to a halt, the Transport Minister seems to be getting the blame.. nothing at all to do with the idiots who went out in those conditions on their school runs etc.. and then blocked the roads stopping gritters and snow-ploughs getting through!!

Ok so the authorities could have got the weather forecast a bit more accurate and been a bit more prepared, but people should be responsible for their own actions and checking these things for themselves before travelling, especially after all the bad weather the past 10 days

Oh and it's all Franke Boyles fault
