Are you looking far and wide for gritting services near me? There may be something quite odd in us writing about winter, snow and ice when the UK is currently basking in a mid-July heatwave. You'd expect summer in July, we know, we know- although it's worth reminding people that we did have snow flurries
Summer has allegedly arrived in the UK, a signal for the Weatherwise team to get some well-deserved rest and lap up the Vitamin D and rays until work begins again in late September (Oh What a Night?) Some like it hot? Except this summer, thus far, has been a bit pathetic to be honest and
Because we've had a cold winter and a cooler spring, lots have been caught by surprise that temperatures during the day and at night remain so low. But. It's not unusual at this time of year though as people are lulled into a false sense of security about heat. Clocks go forward. Sunsets don't happen

One of the most ingenious films of recent years is "Hoodwinked". If you've not seen it, you really should as it's clever and funny for both adults and children. It's based on the fairy tale of Little Red Riding Hood, but has a quad narrative running and us, the viewers, don't really see the big
There's no doubt this winter has been a chilly one - we've had our teams working solidly and stoically now for months. Our weather alert app has seen the full team dispatched with snow clearing and salt, without many breaks. We're not complaining though as we love what we do and some sage said if
We sincerely hope you don't have one of those ear worms, where a song gets stuck in your head on loop for hours and days on end with our punny song title.

When we mention to people that Loughborough is our base, most people understand where it is and associate the town with its university. It is a university associated primarily with Sport and Sports Science and has an illustrious roll call from Sebastian Coe to Monty Panesar to Paula Radcliffe to name but three. Who can
