According to weather reports, in the furthest north of the country, there have been red weather warnings on the radio and people trapped in their properties in 19 inches of snow!

Last weekend, I collected family members from Gatwick Airport at around midnight, and I witnessed the gritter lorries hard at work, preparing the motorways around Sussex, to protect us from ‘the Beast from the East’ and minimise accidents.
