Pah, not where i work gary, they expect us in no matter what, even if there will be NO customers if its really bad, which there won't be, like the other week, 4 days, about 2 maybe 3 customers in each day, plus one full lorry load of stuff to unload.
Driving a forklift on packed down snow/ice is not good, plus there were 28 pallets of cement i had to unload, i got stuck at least 15 times that day, plus the lorry got stuck 3 times on the way out of the yard, totally pointless lol.
There is an up side to it tho, a rear wheel drive car is epic fun to chuck round corners sideways in the snow!!

the snow will indeed affect the foot soldier's getting out to do their regular scores.
even those of us in cars will struggle to do our nook n cranny village hits.

Just walked 10k to get in and no other bugger has bothered turning up. About a 30cm of snow in Reading with more today.

Fair play, but there's no way I'd walk 10k to a town to do machines!!!
Managed to get out first thing this morning, did a 4hour ish route and then it started snowing pretty bad so I took the smart option and bailed. Do not wanna get stuck on a motorway for hours. Managed to make just shy of £300 so was well worth it

I can't be bothered to go out most days, but the weather is a great excuse.
