Was reading an article and it appears that we have named some road gritters
To see where Gritty, Gritty Bang Bang, Luke Snowalker or Frosty are working have a look at this interactive map.
I think it's a great big of fun. Well done guys

These guys have a difficult job and always seem to come in for a bit of flack when the roads are closed.

I cleared the snow from my driveway twice last night but still had to dig the 75 out this morning.
I had to take my wee grand daughter to nursery to allow her parents get to work otherwise my journey would not have been necessary.

I was also supposed to attend a meeting tonight but got a phone call telling me it was cancelled.

Better to stay off the roads if possible in times like this.
