A stitch in time saves nine !

It will take no more than five minutes to sweep off the fresh snow from the pavement outside your house now.

Doing this will prevent the snow becoming compacted by walkers and ending up as ice tomorrow morning.

By now we could be in practice for a bit of communal co-operation!

With ten minutes spent, not only will your stretch of pavement be clear but that of the next five houses as well.

Shall we have an award for the best neighbourhoods?

And remember, the salt is for public use : not your private drive.

If we sweep the snow first, very little salt is required!

Not that easy for some folk, but a good rallying cry!
