Pretty - Deadly

Nearly five inches of snow brought travel chaos to Britain today as temperatures plummeted to minus six degrees - with flights cancelled, motorists stranded and rail services disrupted.

The UK's second-busiest airport - Gatwick in West Sussex - had to shut for more than seven hours, while there were no early-morning flights at Luton airport in Bedfordshire.

A series of accidents, including some involving jack-knifed lorries, led to road closures, with a section of the M40 in Buckinghamshire shut in both directions during the morning rush-hour.

Thursday 17th of December - Snow in Kent

Thanks to the gentleman who shot this film in Edenbridge in Kent..
this was exactley the journey I faced getting home late on Thursday night from Rochester to Maidstone and the conditions were very scary to say the least.
Most towns were at a standstill and Bluebell Hill was closed with many cars abandoned..It took me two hours to do a 25 minute journey and I have to say I was very lucky .. my front tyres need replacing and I slid and hit the kerb on a few occaisions.. fortunately there were no dents and I arrive home with a big sigh of relief
No doubt there will be many more stories in the press on Friday morning..

Check this out... and let me know who you think it might be and where...

Now Camerons new Cutie falls foul of the Suffolk Swedes

Katy Bourne, one of the favourites to be picked as the Central Suffolk candidate at
a meeting on Friday, was born in London, brought up in Surrey and now lives in
Sussex, where until recently she ran a dance studio. Mrs Bourne is on a shortlist of six people for the seat, none of whom is local.

The rebels – dubbed the ‘Suffolk Swedes’ – have noted with alarm that Mrs Bourne’s dance studio was a raunchy business called Rebel Roc, which specialised in teaching Dirty Dancing-style moves to couples.
