yeah, totally true.. it makes me laugh every time...
In London, tubes aren't running, neither are buses, trains are seriously delayed, flights aren't happening and its almost as though most of the country has come to a standstill.. little realising in a few short days the snow probably won't be around....
Good ol' Boris Johnson though - he's suspended the congestion charge for today... bless him... hahaha! I'm watching the weather in London via itvlocal.com (select your region and then 'live views') and all I see is snowball fights in Leicester sq and along Brighton beach...
It's been snowing like fuggery here in Manchester.... there are still buses and trains and flights (although some are mostly delayed) and the metrolink seems ok (I guess, havent seen anything about that so I assume they're still operational
).
Granted, it's too bloody cold to go out taking pics, but as there's more snow forecast, I may take the plunge tomorrow....
And yeah, I haven't seen weather like this since Feb 1991... -11C and no heating in my then new flat where I had to spend the night with a flask of coffee, a radio and get huddled up in 90% of the clothes I owned and a duvet until the electricity supply was connected and switched on the following day...
I still love the cold weather...
, I know I should not complain so much. But we here are just not used to this type of weather.
