Snow shovel lending service this winter

You may have already read in Pencaet News that your Community Council has a supply of snow shovels should snowy weather return this winter.

Nothing is melting as it's just way too cold.

In the event that snow does return, you can now borrow a shovel supplied by East Lothian Council to the community by calling 340 641 or 340 115. You do not need to leave a deposit — just your name and a means of contact.

But we do ask that any borrowed equipment is returned once any snow has finally melted, so it can then be stored for community use in future winters.

And just in case anyone fails to recall what the weather was like last year, here’s a small reminder of not just how long the cold spell lasted but the volume of snow that fell, lasting from the end of November 2010 well into January 2011.
