As far as I know, Birdlip shouldn't be a problem. We've only had a little snow today, settled this morning on grass, but nothing on the roads. Should be fine.

Or, if you're in the Surf, use Greenway Lane to get up Birdlip! Much more fun!!

Can't comment on the other bits, tho!

I know it was where i was born .....Back in the sixties , when it was respectable

It gone down hill since

[Chillitt]

snowing well here, settling over frozen slush... still, if you make it to j15 m40 you can pop in for a brew....(but i wouldn't recommend coming this way..)

[da SLUG man]

it's fine around Newbury... i've been to chichester today so not sure what Guildford way's like?...

[Predictable Bob]

It was alright around Swindon this afternoon if that's any help

[legendgamesmaster]

cheers all, since it took me 50 mins to get accross worcester, then cook and eat dinner, decided to go tomorrow instead.
thanks for the replies - surprised the high ground cheltenham to swindon is OK though.

cheers

Not sure I'd use the Newbury route to get toi Guildford. I used to work there about 14 years ago and always used the A249M route through Bracknell as that was always the quickest. Via Newbury can get dicey in bad weather.
