We got the bus into town to meet friends. The bus skidded sideways on the snowy road, tried a couple of times, and then gave up. Which is why you can see Jane and Gideon trudging towards me as we head to a nearby cafe to recover.

As I think I've said. I'm personally not talking about snow tyres.

I'm talking about WINTER tyres. For wet, cold, frosty, icy and, yes, also somewhat snowy conditions. But not special snow tyres. They are superior in grip and braking distance in anything except hot dry weather. Maybe even hotter than Scotland generally gets in summer. But I dunno. Have to check the specs.
