So, as tradition, we get a "bit" of Snow (ok, admitedly, London has had a heck of a lot, as have other areas!) but in general, its not the amount of snow that's the problem, it's just our reaction, as a nation, to it! Everyone drops everything and stops! I've had a day off today as the school I work in was closed - it closed early yesterday aswell - yet the weather was worse yesterday morning as I drove in, that it was this morning!
I shouldn't complain really, as I've got a few housey things done today, but I like my job and I would have gone in! Haha.
I had to laugh at most of the media coverage of it all though, making it sound much worse than it actually is! I haven't heard the phrase "since records began" yet, but I'm sure someone has muttered it!
Saying that, after coming home early I was heading out again and actually skidding into the curb just yards from my house, and thudded into the curb side, which was a bit scary (car went left, I corrected by turning right lightly, but it kept going!) so I just came home - but thats just up our street, as it hasnt been gritted - most main roads are OK!
