Minus 4 snowing and it has and is still drifting when driving in.
Getting here this morning was certainly difficult. 4x4 was the only way and having picked up Mat from his home in Andoversford we struggled up the drive through big enough snow drifts, and at one stage we looked stuck.. but after several attempts we bulldozed our way through.. just.
Anybody who does not live on site had no chance of getting here, so skeleton staff on, well not quite as most live here in our very warm hostel, but the rider outers who come in daily to ride out 3 lots had a morning at home; even Kerry my PA was told not to attempt to come in.

Yes Beast From The East and Storm Emma have done their bit and as they say we are buggered..
