They didn't forcast this

With the best will in the world you can't say that 10 miles from Aberystwyth is in South East Wales. But according to the weather forcasters (now to be called weather guessers) only the SE was going to be snowed on. Umm, not quite. After being in a snowless Cardiff all day imagine our surprise to get stuck on a hill only a stones throw from home. After waiting an hour for the snow to stop falling there was a slight bit of grip and we were able to crawl home. Sliding, without control, downhill and across a crossroads was not a good moment. Thankfully there was no other traffic.
