Panic buying...

Another 6 inches of snow overnight and I think we now have about two feet, I have never seen as much here and this morning only those in the immediate vicinity were able to be picked up, 9 horses went out and trotted for 40 minutes the rest went on the walker, all will canter again tomorrow (I hope).  Trip to Sainsburys with Mrs A this afternoon - not one potato, carrot, cabbage, turnip or parsnip and the only bread available was that baked in store which involved a 10 minute queue.  We had two ton bags of salt delivered (£250!) and a contract snowplough came in for a couple of hours work, below is the "salt-wagon" just after it unloaded outside the back door..
