40 minute drive turned into 4 hours! All due to no gritting being done despite everyone knowing it was going to snow!
All roads from Folkestone to Hawkinge were blocked by traffic that couldn’t move. My boss had to abandon his car – I picked him up on the way but then we had to give up trying to get past the traffic. We tried a back route but that was also blocked, In the end I dropped Tim off at his friend’s house. I then tracked back into Folkestone and went along the M20 towards Ashford. This was clear of traffic but so covered with snow I could not see the road at all. However once I got to Ashford it was all clear. Eventually got home at 9:30.
Alexander was convinced I was stuck in a “whirl” with some pirates and a shark!
We were supposed to go the SANDS tonight but of course never made it.
