We’ve had some really frosty weather here this week, you know, temperatures hitting below freezing.
Pretty icy ferns inside my car!!
I have had to scrape ice off the windscreen at least twice!
Now I am firmly a ‘spray with de-icer and scrape’ kinda girl, but my sis in law usually splashes lukewarm water over hers and is good to go. Her father is a car salesman with his won garage, and he swears by it.
So, on the second day, I thought ‘why not try it, and filled a bottle with warn water, and got ready to pour and leave with speed.
And this happened. The frost lay on the ground ‘deep and crisp and even’, it was -3.5 degrees celsius, and my windscreen was a sheet of ice!
Why?
Because no one told me I needed to actually stick the wipers on while pouring!
Spent another 10 minutes dislodging ice instead of frost off the windscreen instead!
Women drivers eh!!!
But I Smile Anyway...
