You'll have to cross that Bridge when you come to it.


I suggest Westminster will be your best bet and then Shank's Pony...

Listening to the radio with lots of people ringing in complaining about "if they can do this in Canada and Poland why can't we?" etc etc. And even tho people ring in with perfectly reasonable explanations (eg gritting the road only works if there is sufficient volume of traffic, if there is no traffic gritting doesn't work. OR - in those countries these conditions are typical and so infrastructure is geared towards it.) people still ask the exact same question. Does my nut in


Missing the odd day of work happens for different reasons in different countries - I was off work today anyway but if I was going to work I would just have walked - it's only 3-4 miles if you work in the city. But listening to these people on the radio... sheesh

ok i know this is sad but ermm due to the trains being cancelled i cant get to work where i have left my charger for my work laptop. I need to work today despite the being snowed in and wondered if anyone would be nice enough to lend me their chargers as i'm guessing not that many ppl will be working from home..... i have an HP compaq 6910p laptop.

I'm stranded in Croydon at my Sisters place...after a 9hr trip from Leicester back to London last night!


All was fine until we hit the M25....one of the scariest journeys I've ever made!


Trying to get back home to ED now...but looks like the trains are all out.

No-one can blame you M8.


You've cwertainly done your bit(tu)

Back from a wonderful walk. Amazing the amount of snow'men' - particular mention for the somewhat lewd one with breasts and strategically applied grass.


Tesco Express has just closed down - not enough staff. I was fortunate enough to be one of the last let in so we're stocked up on Heinz tomato soup which is essential in this weather.


Three cheers for the Park Rangers/Gardeners who braved it in to open up the gates.

    • I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?
    • Always preferred Grace and Favour to the BMC, commented in the past on this and sadly long since gone   
    • If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.
    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
