A Front Just Blew In From Russia

I believe London is shut down this morning. No trains, no tube. At least that's what Ailz tells me. And she got it directly from Terry Wogan.
 
Up here, of course, in the hardy north, we don't let a little thing like this discourage us.

Our problem here in the UK is that we get snow for a couple of days per year, and normally it's just a flurry. Investing in serious snow-clearing equipment that sits idle for 363 days of the year is not something local councils can afford to do.

The news said this is the worst snow for 18 years. The last time we had serious snow must have been the year I took the photo in the icon, which was early 90s.
