Back to the grind.

The kids went off happily to school bright and early of a morning.

Management is up to some thing on Wii fit, I might say she looks ridiculous but that would not be nice so I am not going to.

The weather though is completely bizarre.

Took the big kids off to their bus and everything was fine.

By the time another half hour had passed all the rain water that was covering the road had frozen.

Got phoned by the little school to say one of the school buses had crashed into the gate and not to take Gwion to school.

Decided this was worthy of a recce and discovered that the bottom of the valley was an ice rink. The school bus had been removed from the gates and had driven half a mile then smashed into someones house.

The van was briefly completely immobile against the front of someone elses house and I had to struggle like hell to get out of the valley and come home.

Really odd, one minute the road is wet and half an hour later it's an ice rink.

Got home and saw a severe weather warning - that was some help.

Just waiting the call from big school that they are coming home early.
