Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

There's a reason for that. The reason is that the entire Dutch nation is en-route to Italy and every single one of the f*ckers is on the Autobahn somewhere between Munich and Salzburg (or Innsbruck) and has got a caravan attached his car. In a couple of weeks the entire Dutch nation will be headed back the other way and every single one of the f*ckers will still have a caravan and will still be causing 150Km long traffic jams between Salzburg ( or Innsbruck ) and Munich ( I don't care what happens to them after that).
Bring on motorway tolls is all I can say. Be unfair. Make the b*stards pay. Through the nose. In fact through every orifice they possess... Graaaah.

P.S don't get me started on the subject of the Dutch and winter tires and when do we need snowchains..... Mad

FenlandSkier, I think it's because the Dutch don't need snow tyres on their caravans Laughing

The thing with snow chains is that generally you don't need them. You definitely don't need them when driving down the motorway from Munich to Innsbruck. In fact I've only ever had to use them twice in twenty years ( and that was on the Julier pass going from Chur to St.Moritz). What you definitely do need is winter tires though. For some reason we get a lot of Dutch drivers here who hit the outskirts of Munich with their summer tires and discover oopsie woops this white stuff's all slippery, best stop in the middle of the road here and put on my snow chains Evil or Very Mad Then proceed to drive the whole way from Munich to the other side of the Brenner with snow chains on Puzzled

was caught up in this lst Monday evening, 4 hour delay, thankfully my little one was asleep throughout. We'd been on a day trip to restock the wine and cheese levels snowHead

ZERO info on the French side where we were stuck, the Police just coned off the entry/exit slips to the tunnel... If you happen to get stuck that side, try and tune in to BBC Kent radio or Invicta as you will at least get some updates.

The tunnel still smelt really badly of smoke when we came back through but glad no one was hurt etc...
