Haha, i said i should just put it all in the garden in the snow and shovel abit on top. The other half wasnt to keen on the idea. Silly Blonde. When i said i had to go all the way to milton keynes to get a fridge but asked if i could borrow a tenner for fuel rather than go cash machine her reply was "you can take my car if u want just filled up" .. erm love its a Mini....

If i was you mate i would stay away from the M1
both southbound and northbound have been at a standstill since the snow espesily near mk.

all the innerstates near the M1 juctions are gridlock so once you get into MK you will be stuck for a good hour on the same road

the 50 zone at MK is a ballache but not really any more problematic than normal. If you go in the lane thats armco's to itself the average cameras dont monitor there so can drive abit faster than the rest but was a lil bit more snowey than the main bit.
