I've left it parked at the bottom of the drive.
Now I'm part-way into my second glass of red my heart-rate's dropped
to below 90 and I'm almost starting to relax!
g How do you manage with the drive in the winter? That's a lot of
snow to clear by hand.
With snow tyres it's never a problem. And in fact it rarely gets much
on it for more than a few hours, as it's south-facing, innit?
But yes, it's been a pita on a few occasions, and I've normally just
salted it, but I bought a new tractor/lawnmower earlier this year
which, unlike the old one I inherited with the house, is powerful
enough to take either a snow-blower attachment or a simple
plough-blade, so I'll be getting one or t'other in the near future.
Sounds good.
