Inevitable really, you don't see rubber snow ploughs as a rule.

It had to happen in this weather Tony...R.I.P. old friend.
Well, at least it hung on till I got home so I can give it a decent send off mate.
Bin day tomorrow

Bin day tomorrow Tony.
It was our bin day today, I struggled both the brown (garden stuff) and the blue (recycling) bins through the snow down to the bottom of the drive and guess what...bin men didn't come, either of them
That's exactly what I'm expecting tomorrow Dave so I ain't going to bother.

Smashed my Rieger one this morning
It had a small split in it anyway and I don't know if it's done any damage plowing through the frozen snow but then I came into work through the gates a bit fast this morning and spun it, ended up going forwards into the only rock on a grass verge. Completely my faultSorry to hear that Dave.££££?
Tony.
damaged some of the bumper as well I think, it needed repairing and painting anyway it's just give me an excuse now that I have to get it done. Should be repairable. If not a new splitter is just over £100, then paint. I'm an idiot!
is the climate changing under our eyes? seems yes...
too often we hear "never seen this in my life!" and it's so different from our childhood...

My rubber one was only about £13 mate so I got off light.It had a small split in it anyway and I don't know if it's done any damage plowing through the frozen snow but then I came into work through the gates a bit fast this morning and spun it, ended up going forwards into the only rock on a grass verge. Completely my fault

finally, you agree with me....
I've been patiently waiting for some fatherly consolation Pete.

I've always liked the rubber ones but my Dad has one so don't want to copy him. I love the Rieger one and like the way it can be colour coded, it's a pain though as it's not as flexible and the front of mine is low so it's impractical really, although this one has lasted longer than I expected I suppose. I'll get this one repaired hopefully, if not I'll buy a new one and get the bumper painted. I do have a spare bumper which looks OK for now, the paint was flaking off this one in the mouth of it and it's cracked a lot more off it off now. Last time it was painted they didn't do a good job I don't think.
That's the good thing about yours, only costing £13 you probably don't mind as much, still a bummer though! And as for @gookah, I'm pretty sure he managed to shatter his splitter without evening driving his car
