Made it into work today for the first time this week, train was delayed by 30 mins and took 30 mins longer. Will be heading off early though don't want to get stuck here.
Had a meeting in Woking today. I looked at the BBC news and decided not to go in. I am using web ex instead.
The BBC report said M3 closed, M25 in the tulipe, still snowing, 400 lorries stranded on Surrey stretch of the M25. A met officer also said to avoid the M25 at all costs.
I joined the meeting and conference bridge and there was this smug f*cker saying Woking had no snow, the M25 was a doddle and didn't know what all the fuss was about.
We've got about 14 inches of snow now and it hasn't stopped snowing for over a week and the roads are all open and traffic moving.
Southern poofs.
They're decent every time the snow stops falling heavily, the moment it starts re-settling even the motorways are slowing to a snail's pace. Still moving, but barely. We took a drive up the A1(M) last night and was surprised to see it still had snow covering all 3 lanes, even with no recent snowfall.
I've been walking around with a broken little toe for two weeks. As I walk to and from the u-bahn station this counts as commuting. It also hurts (although not that much now, it's on the mend).
While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
