SNOW GOT IN THE WAY ON WEDNESDAY FOR BRIGG TOWN COUNCIL AND THE PRESS

If you saw our Brigg Blog preview of last Wednesday's meetings of the Town Council's Planning and Environment and Property and Services Committee, you may have been wondering why we didn't report any of the debates.
This is because the very sensible decision was taken to cancel both meetings due to the snow that fell during the afternoon and early evening.
This was good news for Brigg Blog, as it took us 1 hour and 20 mins to get back to Brigg from the centre of Scunthorpe and we'd have struggled to get to the first meeting in the Angel Suite on time.
Having been licensed to use UK roads since the mid-1970s, this was the first time we had ever climbed Mortal Ash Hill in first gear. And all there was to look at was the back of a tall lorry from Caistor we followed up the incline.
The A18 had been gritted and we weren't sliding about, but it was just very, very slow going on the way back to Brigg until passing Scawby Crossroads, when traffic thinned out considerably..
