Big smash this morning on the A338

Really? Whereabouts in Hampshire are you Trev? I was in Reading earlier and it was a little cold, but sunny.

 

Honestly, it's still warm and sunny here. Typical confused English weather. Infact, I'm off down the pub in 2 to meet a mate, and I can safely say I'll be wearing just a t shirt up top, mind you, now I've said that might be worth taking a jacket :D.

Side roads in Herts were a nightmare, all was well until I drop down a gear while going fairly slow in my L200 truck, approaching a roundabout. The back end lets go and started sliding towards a barrier, managed to get it straight again and then stuck it in 4WD after that :blink:

It was actually in Blashford on the first straight after the bulk of the 40 limit of the main village (basically the very first overtaking opportunity and the last for over 5 miles after getting off the dual carriageway). That road wasn't treated this morning at all and was covered in packed frost and that would have been probably the first point at which you'd notice it. It would be especially bad in the dark morning as there is a quarry entrance just there that would be extra icy as the trucks drop water and gravel on the road for about 50 metres in both directions.
