Snow hits, and everybody pitches in to help


With more than 20cm of snow in Kilcullen overnight, things are to say the least a little difficult, if picturesque, writes Brian Byrne.

The two hills from the bridge are typically problematical unless you have a 4WD or a team of pushers, which has been the case all morning ... lots of people shovelling and pushing and generally helping each other.


Kenny Rorie was the first to get part of the footpath cleared outside his and Armelle's shop, and then he went back in and has been baking bread since. Reckon there'll be a run on that as soon as it's out of the oven.  The Nolans team were swiftly on the job too, and Steve's Daybreak is clear also.





The depth of snow was unexpected at this stage of the week, and has caused the closure of Cross & Passion College among other things.

The advice is, unless you really have to go somewhere, don't.

More later.
