Ready For The Snow Then?

[dalsoth]

Ask your buddies the site agents to throw a spanner in the boilers and voila!

 

I doubt i will be so lucky to have my school closed but i am praying hard to everything that's evil.

[ranj]

Bet I get sod all - always do when snow is forecast like this..

 

I agree its always overhyped!

 

It be good if our schools are closed so I can work from my bed. hehe.

 

It won't be a day of rest for me though as I got development plans to write..

[torledo]

Do you think the train would be better?

 

the wrong kind of snow ?

[IanT]

I've just drove home in it, I drove in the purley/croydon area! its coming down fast!!

 

Cant wait for tomorrow morning when i get up at 5:45AM!!!

[somabc]

There's actual proper snow lying on the ground in London

[Dos_Box]

It's coming down quite well here in Preston

[yabbadabba]

If it snows here and settles I am so gonna sulk as I sold my Suzuki jeep before xmas

 

On the brighter side the BMW is rear wheel drive so might be worth a play.

 

Failing that I wil go and play in the surf with me Waveski.

 

Either way some fun will be had if snow does keep falling and settles

[Gatt]

Got just under an inch here - driving should be fun!!

[vikpaw]

LUCKY UKers!

 

Anyone know if KMount is flying...?

OK school here is closed and I made it in without a problem [a little slower than normal on the way in, just had to use a little more care]

 

Looks like I will have to go home again now though as my son's school is closed and my wife works in a bank [other rules apply for businesses I guess ]

[Theblacksheep]

Woot - Schools out!

[Gatt]

This is what our school looks like this morning...

[DrCheese]

Ours is closed this morning Tho it's really not bad here so I'm guessing it because of the bleak weather forecast, i.e heavy snow midday.

[IanT]

I've been told by the head to send an all staff mail out saying the school is closed/cancelled

[AngryTechnician]

I was already on the unreasonably icy roads after confirming we were still open when our NM called me to tell me that the Deputy Head had decided to close after all (we normally have a 7am cutoff at which point if we haven't heard, we're open).

[6Foot2]

Whoops: Scrub that I have just seen your pictures posted above. Sorry.

[CAM]

I checked the school site, it says closed. I rang in at 6:10am though on the sicky line saying I can't get anywhere though. The roads are too dangerous and my car is not moving anywhere due to being buried.

 

A days lost pay is cheaper then a car accident.

[K.C.Leblanc]

Not even half an inch here .

[Zoom7000]

Yup, we're snowed in too here in East London. My schools been closed. I wouldn't have been able to get in anyway. I just stepped outside and my feet completely disappeared in the blanket. My daughter is loving it!

[googlemad]

Got to the train station at my local town, got a call saying workplace was closed. No further motivation to go home required than that

 

And this is West Yorkshire, so London must be bad!

[Crispin]

Closed! Weeeeee!!

[mattx]

Well stone me, woke up this morning to a few inches..........of snow - [ you lot have dirty minds ] - my school is closed, & my kids school is closed. I'm going outside to make a snowman.....

[mattx]

Congratulations to BBC Breakfast for dedicating most of their programme this morning to the 'atrocious' conditions. The snow was believed to have been as deep as TWO INCHES in some parts of the country, bringing the entire nation to a standstill.

 

Anyone remember 20 or 30 years ago when this meagre amount of snow never even got a mention?

 

Up here in the harder North we're just getting on with it, everyone's gone to work, the schools are open.

 

Tell me about it. Its quite pathetic - this country has all types of weathers but for some reason it can't cope. Just goes to show how backwards this country is & why we are the laughing stock of Europe.

[Zoom7000]

Two Inches? Try 8! Some reports are even saying 10! It was certainly more than 2 here. I stepped outside and my feet were completely covered!

[Little-Miss]

It's really falling here!! Looks like we're closed tomorrow...dreading getting home!!
