26 hours?? Yikes!

An inch of snow at Heathrow? That's pretty much all it takes. Lol. The Southerners can't cope with cold weather. Lol.

Yeah, figured ;) She said in Vienna there was much more of it and still everything ran smoothly.

I'm just sorry for another friend who wants/wanted to fly to Cardiff, not sure, tomorrow or the following day, and now her flight's cancelled and with the other one offered she has no idea how to go from Bristol to Cardiff that late in the night, when no train is going. She thinks of not going at all.

She wanted to see John Barrowman in this year's panto. That is sad if you look forward to something like that and then have no way to go there and the tickets go wasted.

Oh that sucks. :( Unfortunately public transport here is bad at the best of times. At the moment she'd have no hope. :(

Wow, that is cool. Of course, I'm off here in a completely different climate and I don't have to deal with it, so I can afford to be admiring.

Maybe everyone should just come visit me. It's raining like anything right now, but it's not snowing or freezing.

Ha, that's a great idea, but flying is apprently a problem. The whole country has ground to a halt and there's NO WAY OUT!!!

What? I thought you built a Stargate in the basement. Isn't that why you needed a new toaster?

Hee. Correction, everyone in the UK is sick of the media reporting the weather like it's the apocalypse. :)

Apparently there's a very small spot of green down on the Devonshire coast where they haven't had any snow at all. Which is very odd. Lol.

LOL Yeah, well...globally speaking it's an odd trend so I think that's the angle they're taking...but to us, as the news watchers...it's so ANNOYING to see something over and over. Like, get over it already! LOL

But as a future weather tracker of some sort (haven't picked a job yet...WAY too early in my schooling for that) it fascinates me.

Geek.

LOL

Yeah at first it was cool, seeing just how bad and widespread the snow was compared to what we usually get, but day after day after day of "it's still snowing!" gets annoying.
