Mick has decided that he is going to clear the lane so that he can get his van out. Personally, I wouldn't bother. My car is down there and I have told him he can use that tomorrow as I will walk to work but he says he wants to clear it so fair enough.
It is quite a long stretch of lane to clear and then when you get down to the squeeze it is usually cleared by the Heights of Abraham staff although I'm not sure if they have done it yet. Its about a mile from the squeeze to the main road, all downhill.
I commented to him about checking lower down to see if it had been cleared and I was shouted at "don't you think I'll do that. Do you think I'm stupid".
So off he's gone to clear the lane. When I asked if he was taking the dog with him to look if the rest of the lane beyond the squeeze had been cleared he told me he would come back for her as he would clear the lane first and then go and see if the rest of the road was passable.
Sigh.
