Back in November we carted 500 ton of sugar beet up this cartway  as it was wet we left a lot of mud on it its got a good brick rubble base so I got the mini digger out today and took the mud of the top as the frosts had made it let go from the rubble I plan on covering it with road planings

Where in cornwall mate? Watch it as they are giving snow around Bodmin way and across the moors there if you are doing the a30, believe me snow means chaos this way with the hills

Great!! I'm heading to a solar farm just off Winnards Perch roundabout????

There's loads of them going up along the a30 and General area, most past Bodmin , your up pretty high there, and it's very exposed, was working in St eval a week or two back ,about 4 miles from wiinnards , anywhere past launceston tomorrow, if it snows will be slippy ,a30 is usually down to one lane to keep it moving,

If your that late the end of the day's showing heavy rain and gailforce winds, so a normal Cornish winters day ,there's plenty of big lay-bys along the a30 for a stop, used to be a good truck stop at five lanes but I think that's gone now, there's also one a bit further along on the m5 at columpton, depending on your hours I guess
