Arriveth the weather

Winter, it appears, has arrived in the capital. We had snow overnight, which while it arrived in microscopic amounts - it looks as though someone kicked over a big bag of flour, so I guess we must have had about an inch - it will be enough to bring the suburbs at least to a halt. I suspect that we will need a further and more sustained fall for it to have any effect on the centre but out this far it is quite pretty.

I await with baited breath to see how this manages to affect the underground system, but I'm sure it will somehow.

I shall take my camera with me to work today just in case.

There's a bit more out our way but I believe it's go to rain later so I don't think we'll have it for long : (

It actually took me less time to get into work today as the roads were empty.

The benefits of having a rocket pack ?!

Croydon didn't fare so well ...took me over two and half hours to get in... Glaciers blocking Gravel Hill I believe, and maybe the odd Polar bar causing a kerfuffle at East Croydon.


Like last weeks hurricane force winds (or bleedin' storm with a bit of wind) Souf London fair grinds to a halt with the arrival of an inch of slushy snow...

Its pathetic.
