You tow them, usually behind a boat, or if you watch Jackass, behind a V8 on the sand !

Ah yes, I've seen them.

Only had a sledge to pull with the quad. One of those donuts could potentially be quite fun, no point ordering one now though as the Post Office probably won't deliver it until after all the snow has gone.

I should have known better then to quote "So little it's not possible to measure" and kept my trap shut, it's piling up here with more to come.

@ Kamilb, I think you made a mistake with your first photos, a shot of the C5 in the open, overed in snow and no footprints around it would have been a wonderful candidate for the calender comp.

That would have been the basis for a fantastic picture.

We've had another inch or so today and I managed to get my car out of the freezing cold and into a garage for the foreseeable future  :D

We had quite a bit of snow on Sunday, which meant schools closed on Monday - which then meant going sledging down the big field / hill in the village  ;D

Was all back to normal for the schools yesterday, and as of today, it's starting to clear on the paths, but getting a bit slippy.

Think i'll leave the C5 in the garage for a little longer  :)
