update :- add 2-3ins more snow:(:(
 
My Smurf high-top impression. Snow on my cars excites me, but also makes me cringe here when I've got £100 car cover and a £[:0][:0][:0] garage that it should be using either of.

Looks lovely[8D] Just a thought, don't let the snow get too thick on your pop-tops(or high tops) - it's heavy[V] My old mate Black Dan up in Balquidder had to scrape it off his caravan roof as it was buckling under the strain[:0]

why would snow buckle under the strain of being on a caravan roof[?] is buckled snow dangerous[?] does snow buckle on any other roofs[?] im confused:I[:eek:)]:D

oooooooohhhhh! you really don't want to have to deal with 'buckled' snow!!! normal snow is bad enough!:D[8D][}:)]

oh god more questions!! how do i tell the difference between buckled and normal snow[?] how dangerous is normal snow[?] is normal snow found widespread or in special areas[?][^]

Special areas as announced by local broadcasters...but mainly in the regioins of caravans and motorcaravans...with light spells overlaying a shed near you sometime soon![}:)]:D

oh jees i have the wifes commer motorhome out the front, two sheds and a green house out back and a childs wendy house, does this mean i will be prone to normal snow[?] how do i prepare myself[?] how does buckling snow fall, is it faster than normal snow[?]

buckled snow has many modifications...too many to list....but you must be prepared...I suggest the best pereperation is to .......move or be doomed!![}:)]:D

Once you've dealt with buckled snow you'll be better prepared for when your Swash gets buckled. Pirates are often responsible for this phenomenon.

Snow usually buckles due to the pressure of a caravan roof pushing up agaist it. As the roof pushes up the snow gets all irritared and pushes back and eventually the poor roof just gives up and goes to sleep in the cold - buckled snow 1 - caravan roof - 0 [xx(]

Hmmmm, the roof dosn't seem to be pushing back too much so you should be OK - Molly and the Skoda are lost forever or at least until the present iceage has passed:I

What the hell is he doing north of the border he should be getting stuck in to his new resto project - although decent woolfy food is scarce in this weather and all those stale 15" crossplys must be getting boring by now:I
