Donuts in snow
I came back from my step brother's house in Nottingham the other day and called in at the sister in law's house in Staleybridge in Cheshire. Snow had started to fall as I was coming over the pennines.
They live in a nice part of the town, up a very steep hill. I was fine until I got half way up when the hill takes on a much steeper incline. Then I found myself doing several donuts up the hill. At the end of the road I had to do a three point turn but instead twirled round twice! Very good fun but a bit scary. Had to on-off-on-off the accelerator to get up the hill!
Moral of the story - whatever you do, do NOT try and drive this car in a straight line in snow!
