It snowed in London today. Not a big deal in some places but we've not seen this much snow for 18 years.
Good things:
Schools closed. The building we live in has been resounding with the extra-special laughs of children playing when they should be at school. Squared by their joy with the snow. Most of them have never seen this much.
London's delighted. There are snowmen all over Central London. People have come out of their offices and made snowmen. How splendid is that? Try as we might we can't be all cynical and miserable about snow. Not all of us anyway. This is enhanced because there are so many people living here from countries that see even less snow than we do. There was a regular flow of people outside the flat last night taking pictures of each other in the snow. Lovely.
Bad things:
People complaining about the collapse of the infrastructure. What do they expect? It doesn't snow much in London, should we be spending lots of money on the assumption that it might?
There are no other bad things.
