The annual snow commute

The annual snow commute went like so:
Day 0, fit winter tyres, after much debate, and can't wait to become a safer driver abroad (although last year the scariest moment was actually driving up the pass from Capel!)
Day 1, drive along the North Wales coast and begin packing
Day 2, drive to London, finish packing
Day 3, squeeze in a check up at the optician, drive to the Eurotunnel terminal, camp overnight at the services near Reims
Day 4, arrive in Verbier, woohoo, to snow in the village and powder on the slopes.
Day 5, admin and unpack - moving house for the 2nd time in as many weeks!

And so far the main difference between driving here and back home... here everyone is in a shiny shiny car that they insist upon driving right up your backside!  Not that I'm bitter about owning an old white french van.
