Main roads (A-roads and Motorways) are fine around Southampton but bear in mind more snow possible on Saturday eve if you are returning.,.

You are 23 for fech sake. It is not the Karakorum highway. If push comes to shove take a break at a Shell station and replenish provisions with some Ginster pies and Magnum lollies.

shakes head in frustration

Ginsters are quite a dangerous propersition. Especially if heated adn obtained from a "back country" service station.

All the main roads and bus routes in Dorset are being regularly gritted. - You should be fine. it's just the side roads and some country lanes which aren't being treated.
have fun
