    How badly prepared are we :shock: i can't get in to work; trains are cancelled, buses aren't running, the tube is down, roads are blocked with stuck cars ... all because we got 3 inches of snow yesterday!

    haha i know what u mean .. i know alot of people who live close to work never made it in, no excuse; kudos for making it in though trigger .. apparently the biggest skive of yesterday haha!

    am still stuck today, trains cancelled in to london, unfortunately i live 30 miles away from work so can't really walk in.

    remember it snowing last year when i got back too, but the time before that came back to t-shirt weather ... can't predict what its going to do.
