Effing crazy here in North London. Woke up with a text from a family member this morning, telling me to stay at home. Opened my curtains to be greeted by a blizzard. Loving it. Feeling like a small child again, very excited

Working from home today for me as well, also down in London.

Seems to be easing off now but they're expecting a lot more this afternoon, I much prefer getting stranded at home ot getting stranded at work so I'm not heading in even if they sort out the tubes this morning!

Two other people in my office made it in today. There's about 20cm of snow here in central london. Nothing much to do today. All my mates are taking the day off. Times like this I hate living walking distance from the office - no excuses!!

Was hoping that school would be shut today, despite only having a cm or two of snow...but nope it's still open, so i guess i'd better get on with my work.

DanielleCJ · « **Reply #91 on:** February 2, 2009, 09:50:36 am »

Got about 6 inch or so today, been up to the fields this morning with the dog and its even deeper up there.
Snowing again now as well! My roads murder!

$unny · « **Reply #92 on:** February 2, 2009, 10:19:47 am »

Lots of snow! Shame it's a mare figuring out how i'm going to get back to uni...

also why don't people like snowball fights? This is a rare occasion and no-one wants to play!

Genuine question, do people in the UK use winter tires?

No.

So how are insurance companies acting in case of accidents? Could they not state that the vehicle was not fit for the conditions?

bryanod · « **Reply #110 on:** February 2, 2009, 01:18:01 pm »

got woken up by my bro throwing snowballs at my window.

Better fuck off by the weekend i'm goin to madrid

runkerry1 · « **Reply #111 on:** February 2, 2009, 01:53:51 pm »

Came home on the roads last night at 12:30(London based), took me 1hr 30 to do 20 miles, cars spinning everywhere, was on the A3 at one point, with a car 'donutting' in front of me(can understand why no buses were running), not pleasant at all, been snowing ever since, looks wonderful, but may have to go out again later. D'oh!
Looking like it's going to be a lot worse tonight.

Its crazy how London grinds to a halt after a few cms of snow. Even Heathrow lost both runways until now!

elsombreroman · « **Reply #113 on:** February 2, 2009, 02:00:10 pm »

wayyy I can confirm that I have just seen the first bit of snow here this year

Mas · « **Reply #114 on:** February 2, 2009, 02:03:29 pm »

Woke up to this. I've never witnessed a snowfall and this is making me feel like a kid.

Mate it's a bit more than a few cm's, more like inches, try 5-6 inches, would you really want to be on a plane trying to land in these conditions, as I know I wouldn't (I live 5 mins from Heathrow).
