I had a panic on Monday, got in Cassy to drive to Bedford (rather than not be able to get to London due to the trains) after having a lie in, saw it was nearly 9am and I was supposed to be there at 8:30, then realised I hadn't changed the clock!

But then I remember how well Cassy goes :-D

If he stopped for fuel.......at costco.

He'd be even quicker in an HDi ;)

Nah, apparently HDi's cut out if you push them too hard ;)

Thankfully on Monday people had been sensible regarding the storm warnings and the roads were really clear. That didn't stop one of my co-workers who lives a couple of roads away saying that he had a hell of a journey into Northampton, but then, the last time it snowed he called in saying there was no way he could make it (he's got some Merc) while I was driving around Beds and Bucks in Cassy wondering what all the fuss was about.
