In view of an imminent (possibly bitter) cold and snowy spell from the weekend onwards can anyone add to 'Spread Sheeran' and 'Gritti Politti' as seen on the mean streets of Suffolk Coastal?

Yes potential for another BftE from next weekend looking at recent model output.
Not a TWO forum user are you by any chance...seem to be a few Town fans on there? |  |

The fcukwits send out the gritters when it is entirely unnecessary, poisoning waterways in the process. Still, gotta make sure the budget is spent or there will be none next year. Aye wholes. |  |

Not sure that's quite true, certainly not here in Hillingdon...not seen the roads gritted more than once or twice this winter despite having several frosty/icy mornings. | |

Steve Gritton. Normally found at the front of the gritter convoy. A solid performer but doesn't grit as much as some others.
Griti Patel. Ignores stretches of roads used by foreigners and chalks up a tally of the resulting accidents on the driver's door. |  |

Yeah I guessed as much. I haven't seen agritter round here this year so can't say I've noticed any. I think Swansea Council have given up and decided to save a few bob. | |
