emergency action plan... the snow starts i stop put all equipment in shed then start again when its gone i dont mean a couple of inches of snow will stop me. 3 or 4 feet for a month stops me.

If things get as bad as last year I might start offering snow clearing & gritting services, probably targeting estates with older ppl who wouldn't be able to do it themselves. So far this winter has been fairly kind though,.. a couple of inches of snow is fine so long as its still safe to drive.

probably its due to us pricing higher and working faster.  we're WFP and so thats a lot easier of course.  not sure if youre trad or WFP?  was just watching a demo by alex gardiner of one of his new poles SL extreme, and how he cleans the window is like our maintenance clean technique, i think.
