Got your sledges yet?

He's going to Uxbridge tomorrow to pick them up.

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).

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.

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.

Left home 1/2 hour early, bombing out of London on M3

M3 Closed between junctions 2 & 3 due to jack-knifed lorry, so had to zoom round M25, up M4 to Junction 10, then take the A road past Bracknell and Bagshot, rejoining M3.

Arrived at clientco 1/4 hour later than usual, to find everyone else in team has stayed at home.

Not bad.

Going to head up to Uxbridge tomorrow. 35 mile trip. Probabvly leave at 7am to make sure.

WHS. I had to leave my car stranded on a hill trying to get in yesterday morning, so got it moved to my mates house, just over a mile away. Strapped small child to rucksack carrier at 06:15 today and walked to the car in the snow.

Thankfully I was stationery.

Gummed or un-gummed?

[Spacecadet]

Dunno what all the fuss is about.
I left home at my usual time and even got back early!!
However, I didn't actually make it into the office having spent the past 7 hours sat in tailbacks

[MrRobin]

Took me 5 hours to get home from London last night, including a 3 hour walk as the line was blocked by several broken down trains. Who said working in an office meant you got no exercise??!
