Well i was up at 6 this morning to head up the slopes to go boarding and got some photo's. Unfortunately we got as far as Braemar and the snow gates were closed due to 5ft drifts on the road (waiting for a joke here

) Waited for a while but it became clear they weren't going to clear the road as the wind would have just filled it back in again so we just had to head home. Took a while to get there as well as we were doing 30/40 miles an hour cos the roads were so bad.
Snow was coming down thick last night

This was the main road to braemar this morning....somewhere...just aim for the bit with no trees!

Got down there and folk were sitting waiting at the gates

Gates were shut though


So we tried to bury my mate in the snow


You can just see how much snow was sitting on the cars in the centre of Braemar, defo over half a metre!

Roads home were definitely better though!

White as far as you can see


When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.
