I was in hamsterley for a few days there at her parents, and there was a wee bit of snow on Monday.

There were two cars in the hedge on the hill coming up into the village from the road that goes to darlo (the a68?)

Its because people stand on the brakes at the first hint of something going wrong. And then of course it gets worse. Its the same here in heavy rain or snow.
It can be rewarding though to travel the M9 on a wet morning and see several 3 series M-coupes stacked into the central res after hitting a wet patch on full throttle and then full middle pedal  8-)
