My thoughts exactly. The ITN news at 10 on now is very funny - a full 12 minute feature on snow. Penny Lancaster up north in a helicopter looking at... snow. Live camera bits from gritting depots in Bromsgrove. Like we are going to wake up tomorrow BURIED AND UNABLE TO GET OUT THE FRONT DOOR. And yet we got nothing last time. I'm also hoping that my guys who live in zone 2 don't use it as an excuse to bunk off work again. I expect a Sean McGhabhan attitude where they don ski's and walk 4 miles in to work if they have to.

Last bout of Snow we had just before Christmas, I was stranded on my way home to norwood. If this happens tomorrow after work I will make darn sure I will be stranded in the Palmerston then stranded on my Brother's sofa for the night.

LM you up for a stranded night in the pub.>:D<

Lets play that competition that we all played last year:


Who will be the most dedicated citizen and walk furthest in the snow to please our employers....


[sean was last years winner I think - I on the other hand stayed in bed with a slight sniffle - I don't like work and I don't like snow either]

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
