just had to go out into a small village in the peak district to pick up a perscription for a friends mum who's ill as i'm the only one they know with a 4x4 and a knowledge of to drive one off road haha. so got to the surgery ok fair bit of snow but nothing major.
there was a lad i know from a local plant hire company with a volvo backhoe clearing the doctors yard. he had an old tractor tyre cut in half trapped in the 4 in 1 bucket so it stuck down about 4 inches and using that to plough the block paved yard thought it was a right good idea, said they use old rubber tracks as well.
he let me have a go nice machine really smooth and comfortable.
still snowing up here, haha
A good idea, snow plough thing

Does it not leave rubbery skid marks all over the shop?

Ahhhhhh like a yard scraper type affair? Ah, that's a good idea. Should work a treat.
