Driving in the snow

An simple RPG or JAVELIN in top attack mode, should be a suitable countermeasure to your "so called" armaments.
Not too many people would think to bring an RPG in an urban assault setting, espeically if they're just looking for food. That, and I don't know of anyone that can legally own a RPG (not that some folks wouldn't have them). Further, it would probably be more likely used to gain entrance to a structure as opposed to a defensive weapon inside said structure.
.45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly

Jokes apart, we have a set of winter tyres that will go on the car this week [as soon as I can get a slot at the garage]. In Hunland only the most stupid would not bother with winter tyres and we have a set /in case/ here. We used them two years ago for Scotland, last year in Wales and also for a few winter trips across Europe. I also keep my snow chains in the car from October through to March. It is so much easier and safer if you have the right equipment.

Good strategy. Environmentally correct. I don't have studded tyres myself, and I have no chains. But the salting of wet, icy roads is very efficient here. On dry snow/ice you don't need studs.

I cannot drive whilst it is snowing. I get hypnotised by the snow coming at the windscreen and then flying over the top of it. I end up focussing on the windscreen and see nothing beyond it. Fortunately we've had virtually none around here, and it is another beautiful sunny but cold day, just like the weekend and end of last week.

I always found that if you drove while it's snowing and you focused too much on the snow coming down towards the windshield that it looked as if you were jumping into warp speed or something! At which point you can no longer look away from the stars snow flying by your spaceship car. :omg:

... And go where no car has gone before!
They've been up other trees, maybe, but not that one.

Am I being groomed? Cos my mum said I'm not allowed to give that sort of information out to strange men on the internet. Live near Lichfield, work on the outskirts of Walsall.

Here's mine: 0) Look out window, observe snow accumulating on ground. 1) Pour a 2nd cup of coffee 2) Setup defensive fall-back positions throughout house with at least 200 rounds of 5.56 Nato, and 50 rounds of .45 ACP at each position. 3) Make sure each rifle and pistol have a loaded magazine inserted, and the action is charged. 4) Make sure all weapons are on "SAFE" (gotta think of the non-combatants). 5) Identify and fortify your "last stand" postion. 6) Stack all canned goods and sufficient water supply to to "out-last the looters". 7) Curse the day you let your wife convince you to wait until the last minute to do all this. 8) Take aim at the front door. 9) Wait.
