White Room
yes it was caddington
ive been through it thousands of times and the hills dont seem much untill they are buried in snow
ive never seen snow that deep, it had drifted and buried the cars
people had abandoned their cars and they blended into the verge it was only the fact they had left their interior lights on that we could see them
when we got to the a5 it was only a couple of inches and was passable through dunstable
the locals are used to getting snowed in as it was them that told us we were better off waiting till the morning and offered us beds for the night
its really got me thinking about how ill prepared we are for such eventualities
this could happen anywhere. ive asked my local councillers what would happen if it happened in leighton
they didnt know
they would have to go to central beds council for help
ive spoken to the major at leighton salvation army and we are putting together an emergancy commitee to swing into action if something like this happens
weve hit our first hurdle
we all have to be crb checked which costs £65 each and takes months
were carrying on anyway as theres no reason we shouldnt pass
are you local whitebeam as your in herts
Hemel Hempstead Mike, I've worked in Caddington and it's surprising you don't notice the roads until something like this weather.
