But now you never see anything other than gritting lorries, and no householder or shopkeeper is going to risk a compensation claim if some idiot carefully manages to slip on a cleared area. <br /><br />Thank you Gordon, Tony, and the rest of your scumbag mates for ruining my country.microdavenoreply@blogger.com
