This morning we nipped up the motorway to Cranstons at Penrith to stock up on meat for Christmas (large joints of ham and beef etc). As we were going up the rain was a bit "lumpy", and we were glad to be safely cocooned in our heated seats in our climate controlled four wheel drive car. With the boot full of good food we came back over Shap - one of the best (and quietest) roads in the north. As we neared the summit the lumpy rain turned a bit whiter and we set the driving controls to "Snow". We may not have needed to - but we don't get much opportunity. The photo was taken from the comfort of my seat, though the windscreen, between the sweeps of the wipers. By we got home it was back to rain - look to see how much from the link to our Weather page (see left).
