Let It Snow!

I love London. It’s now my home and it has remained one of the most influential and important cities in the world for the past thousand years or so. And it’s still a real buzz to feel a tiny, tiny part of that.

But today it is snowing and London has ground to a halt. Most Underground trains (ie. trains that go UNDER THE GROUND so they should not be hit by adverse weather above ground!) are affected by the snow, bus routes are in chaos and basically it’s a right old state.

I remember when I was a child then a teenager growing up in Yorkshire and we had snow too, but that particular county didn’t grind to a halt. We just wore scarves and gloves along with our usual apparel.

So take heed London. It’s only bloody SNOW!
