Went to Saddleworth to take more photos need a ideal photo that we want to use to put in a frame for our living room wall went ignored the warning lights for the road closed this time we got stuck in two foot of snow.
Helen got out of the car i cleared the snow from behind the wheel and drove back then went forward a foot and back a foot at a time finally got the wheels to grip and could pick up enough speed to clear the drift although it was all over the road going sidewards and sliding , had to drive straight has i had no room to turn around because of the snow drifts.
Picked Helen up 300yards further on nowt like leaving a sinking ship and made it to the next available turning space then drove back to the Huntsman inn other cars where finding it difficult and they also where having to turn around so we were not the only fools out and about .
Went to Saddleworth village bought some cakes and some paraffin for our hurricane lamps back at home , no doubt we will burn the house down that will melt all the snow.
Finally made safely home the end,
