Oh yes for sure, would be great fun. I had a 205 junior when I was a kid, the places that could go in snow was astonishing.

Think of the service you’d be providing, all the people behind would get extra traction from the rust dust scattered in the road

I bought a Ka when they came out in late 90s and it was amazing in the snow too. Better than Grand Cherokee on massive off road Kumho tyres anyway!

So mid twenties last mon-tue, very sunny and 18 yesterday, lovely walk outside, BBQ in the evening.
Snow this morning, big fat flakes for a few hours, 4c feels like -1 with wind chill. :shock:
Even are hardened Melbournian finds this entirely bizarre.

We had nice weather Saturday and it hasn't been able to decide whether it wants to be spring or winter since. Usual Scottish weather :lol:

Full moon tonight and tomorrow (actual time of full 04:13 27th), the Pink Moon, and the first of three supermoons on the trot (May's is the largest, this one second). Naturally it's getting cloudy here after several clear nights :roll:
