Over 300 schools were still closed on Tuesday. I was hosting coffee that morning, but no one braved it. All activities are cancelled. S is supposed to have a play date tomorrow, but the mom said she was worried about the weather so may need to cancel. Wow. We had 1-2 inches of snow yesterday.
To be fair..(brit speak) the tires aren’t much more then bicycle tires and there are no plows. It is as though we are down south. The whole country is locked up.
Wednesday things seemed to return to normal somewhat. Most schools were open, but most people where still to worried to take their cars out. Truly there was nothing to worry about. There was a few rough spots on side streets. And there hadn’t been anymore snow since the inch on Monday. We woke up Thursday to another snow day. It is a proper snow this time. I bet 2 inches when it is finished. Everything is shut down again. The kids are out playing in the snow now. (A benefit to a fenced backyard and being able to watch them through the patio door as they play and I work at the computer.) Now, it is time for me to join them and build a snowman or two.
Unfortunately V has been out of town all week and the snow may stop his return tonight. All of London was shut down on Monday or Tuesday, including the buses and the tube.
