    Icy, VERY icy. Crunchy underfoot and slidey under wheel (car thermo said -4C). Had to go to butchers this a.m. and Mini seems to handle the slippery thing quite well but driven proper careful. If not, I’ll be going sideways v quick. Mini computer needs to be told about basic laws of physics though, i.e., drop in temperature, means contraction of gas, equals lower pressure in said gas, like in tyres! Had gone about 100yds before there were bleeping flashing things going off all over and some doxy telling me that tyres were about to fall off and I was to be put in telephonic contact with emergency safety swat team. Had to pull over and hit a selection of touchscreens, buttons and levers to make her shut up and go away. No Chinook arrived with SAS so I assume it worked?
