I'm sure it's on it's way, be patient!

few students up and about at half 8, but i'm sure there'll be snowmen (and women) up later, to say nothing of the snowballs and stuff.

What fun! Everything looks so pretty .

Yep, even Dewsbury looks pretty. It's really comong down now here!

There's a piddly amount out where I am. Saying that, I wouldn't make a giant effort to get into work should there be, as they're a bunch of qunts who I hate with all my being.

I can't imagine what they're like. We left Croydon before they came into operation. Are they a good thing?

No, they don't work.

Youtube is your friend

WOW, what a great video!

All those places that are so familiar to me. Thanks for that JKL. I'll have to show it to my parents.

We're only getting very light flutterings of snow here, but it's not the usual wet slushy type. It has potential. The bloody salt trucks did their rounds this morning, where I work, and my car is covered!

Paul Adams live round your way now?

Working from home today as no trains or bus for me. Thanks to the wonders of technology I am running whole of the IT operation for my work place from my home with a laptop and a phone. Walked to the station in the morning to find it shut for whole day, pushed few cars and walked on the middle of the road as there was knee deep snow on the sideways. Wish i had a snowplow as I would be laughing to the bank.

We have a good 4 or 5 inches deep here. Beautiful!

Probably helped by me not living in a huge urban area, the location of my town in the middle of the Chiltern Hills, and the location of my house on top of one of those hills.

Hey, it's really coming down now

It's stopped over these ways. More expected though. And it's not going to melt away any time soon, with this toasty 0°C.

It's turned gloomy here, but still no white stuff...

I thought Scotland was permanently under cloud cover and thus gloomy.

that's just the hangover not wearing off...

Well, our Site Manager, Facilities Manager and Maintenance Manager have all failed to get to work in Sarf London, so I feel a bit better about having a lie-in.

How the hell is this country supposed to get out of recession if you lazy barsteward Londoners take a day of for a bit of sleet FFS!?

Well, let's see:

No trains.

No buses.

No tubes.

No trams.

Roads all gridlocked, and we are told by the emergency services not to travel.

How do we get to work?

Get up early and walk!

Cor, Buses were still running during the blitz guvnor.

16 miles through heavy snow.

Bog right off.

London has lost the dunkirk spirit obviously.
