Are you guys a little chilly over there? Well I want you to know that we ARE thinking about you. In fact, we discussed some of the ex-pats today, as we sipped on a Gelado iced coffee from Vida e . Isn’t that weird? I mean, we were sitting on the beach in the HOT SUN and we were sipping a crushed ice drink, which was WARMER than London! That is SO weird.
So anyway, one of my favourite ex-pat blogs in London, MudIsland Mike featured an amusing article this morning, with some shots of the havoc.
Mellow
I got the magical email from my boss this morning: “Please feel free to work from home today if you wish, due to the current weather conditions many of you will probably not be able to make it in anyway.”
I love that – ‘if you wish’….
So Little Bear and I went for a walk this morning around Earlsfield, so beautiful. She had her little Wellingtons on kicking and swishing at the snow, jumping up and down threatening me with a snow ball or two. I just had my lame canvas sneakers on so Little Bear had to carve tiny pathways out for me in the snow to the sidewalk when a car approached, slipping and sliding down the road toward us. Little Bear was telling me how earlier there was a crazy dude on skis carving up powder down Garratt Lane – insane!
On the way home a local in the neighborhood was telling me how in 20 years of her living in Earlsfield she had never seen anything like it – between 6 and 10 inches of the stuff!
You guys have got our full support over there!
Apparently MOST international arrivals into Heathrow have been cancelled. Hectique!
