Carpediem Jesus H Christ i wish people would take the time to google this stuff and get their facts right
all week in work the debate as raged, and i see it everywhere on the forums,
Now i see a commenter on a news story about the weather on The Suns website going all off at the health and safety nazi's and how its illegal, you will be sued
its all utter rubbish as this link proves........http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Nl1/Newsroom/DG_191868
so long as you dont make it worse you can do as you please,
infact the only thing it tells you not to do is use water to clear snow/ice as it can cause black ice, thus increasing the problem
everything else from shovelling to salting is fair game
rant over
will if I didnt grit the pavement infront of my house the IS would never make it up the drive.......got caught out in the second bout of snow a few weeks back where i hadnt and I was left stranded across the middle of the road blocking it.....funny thing was it was the gritting truck i was blocking getting past.....good chap he was got out and pushed me along with one of my neighbours!!

however i can see the reason for not clearing the snow from your house area.. in this recent " blaim claim" culture brought on by legal firms i dont blame people. yes it is bollocks to say it is illegal to clear snow and ice, however i can easily see if someone did slip or fall after an effort to clean the path the legal no win no fee firms would give it a go.
over here you MUST clear the snow and ice from the public pavement in front of your property or the care taker does it. In germany you can do it or pay slightly more in taxes for the council to do it, and if someone slips and sues then its upto the council to take the heat.

I dont understand how anyone can be sued for slipping over on ice/snow though?
