South East London reporting in......
We've got tons of the stuff, snow covering roads quicker than they can grit it.
Miss tdr1nka too excited to sleep!!
I've gotta ride in this in the morning tho might have to change tyres, would knobblys on lower pressure make more sense?

Sounds good, it's a shame you're missing out.

Maybe someone can keep a snowball in their freezer for you.

We are well used to the stuff, just letting you soft southerners have a short spell. Seems to be causing mayhem already

Knobblies gather up the snow - you'll end up with giant snowballs for tyres. It does clean your sidewalls a treat though...

Seriously though, no matter how good your ice-cycling skills are, they won't be a match for a sideways Vauxhall. Londoners can barely drive in the rain, never mind the snow.

Take the train. Oh wait, they'll be cancelled. Take the day off and go sledging - tea trays ahoy!

Oh if you knew the half of that predicament!

Tomorrow morning I am supposed to be starting a cycle club at Miss tdr1nka's school. This is patently not going to happen but I should be there to show willing and I still need to talk with the Head and teachers involved.

Now.... here's the tricky bit.
I dropped Miss tdr1nka at her Mother's house tonight and her Mother asked
if I'd ring the school in the morning to say we were stuck in Yorkshire and Miss T would be absent, so she could get a day in the snow with her.

As with the knobbly tyres(of which I find I have none anyway)I'm going to have to see what the morning brings before I make any decisions tonight.

No snow in Monmouth. It tried earlier with anbout two minutes of light snow dust, but that's it, I think. It's clear and cold out there now.

We haven't had snow like this in London for ages, I love the way it soaks up and muffles the noise.
I also love the way everything grinds to a halt!
