I did it after you sent me the link Drummy and then deleted it, thought I'd add it when Rupert emailed me about it.

I agree with your comment on the vocabulary, makes me wonder what the required outcome is, i.e. what he's trying to differentiate between.

I suppose we are rather more subtle in our preferences for the kind of snow and ice / I wouldn't have got the grip from there myself / I'd have come back when there was more snow cover etc. etc. than the average.
