Our first snow of the year fell on Thursday night, so we were a little worried on Friday morning about how the roads would be for our journey to Cheshire to see Alison's family. But once we were on the main road through the village, all the roads had been gritted and just became better and better as we headed out of Aylesbury. The heavy snow that was forecast for when we hit the Midlands turned out to be a solitary short shower.Our two nights stay turned out to be very cold, culminating in icy conditions the last morning. The car needed a push from the hotel owner and another man to get up the hill from the hotel car park to the main road. But we made lunch on Sunday with my brothers in Dorridge where fortunately the side roads were passable. And when we woke up on Monday morning, the snow at home had frozen.
