    I hate icy morning underfoot. I’m always frightened that I’ll fall and hurt my back. I hope it doesn’t last.

    That Micra in your photo really is in a bad way…. Thankfully January has past and hopefully it’s free to commute safely.

    @Kieran Campbell: Are you worried about its paint job? It’s only a bit of frost it will melt away. I am more worried about the idiot drivers who don’t have a clue how to drive on icy roads making it hard for everyone else.

    @Alan Scott: All season or cross climate tyres should be made mandatory in this country with the mix of weather we have, and not summer tyres that all cars have.

    @brendan H: The most important factor on driving keep you eyes on the road and slow down I have seen time after time drivers to close to the car in front summer or winter tyres not going to make much of a difference with this practice in any road conditions

    Irish Rail have combined loads of services with no announcements at all. Passengers from 6:40, 7:25 and 7:40am services out of Limerick all delayed and amalgamated onto one Train this morning. Never seen a more crowded morning service.
