Some of you might have noticed Scotland grinding to a halt due to snow in the last 24 hours (cue sneers from Dakkaites in Scandinavia and Canada). However, Transport Scotland's fleet of gritters is on the case, as this real-time map shows:

Zoom in a bit, and you'll see that quite a few of those lorries have names; Sir Andy Flurry, for instance. Or Gritty Gritty Bang Bang, or one of my favourites, the Golden Great Gritter - rather appropriately in the vicinity of the Forth bridges. No Gritty McGritface, though. Yet.

I have no clue how Dakka's moderation work. I expect it involves throwing a lot of d100 and looking at many random tables.
FudgeDumper - It could be that you are just so uncomfortable with the idea of your chapters primarch having his way with a docile tyranid spore cyst, that you must deny they have any feelings at all. |

No surprise there. Was in Glasgow october-novemberish, and somehow kept being surprised that a city and country with as much rain as Glasgow, Scotland doesn't use road-paint you can actually see when it's y'know, wet...
If they're that stingy on paint, I'm not surprised they've skimped on other things as well.
Then again, they do have a reputation to maintain...
