    Very cold this morning. Remember folks, it's a windscreen though, not a porthole, clear your screeen of frost before driving off.

  2. I take this to extremes when clearing the car for Mel. Windscreen, all side windows AND lights. Back screen has usually cleared by that time.

    I just let the pedestrians and cyclists clear mine as they slide off the bonnet .

    Funny they mentioned this and I saw the tweet which reminded me of this tale.

    20 years ago I lived in Leeds with my folks. Dad and me would meet my uncle in the local pub Sunday evening being droopped off and collected by mum. I recall one winter my uncles mate decribing driving to work in his Yorkshire Electricity Board van and giving a lift to his neighbour whose car would not start. He'd cleared a port hole in the windscreen and drove to work dropping his neighbour off at a Police station on the ay. It was only then that it dawned on him his eighbour was a policeman.... Suppose getting a lift as enough for the officer and he prefered that to offending his neighbour who was getting him to work.
