When we had the "dire" warning of snow forecastthe day before yesterday and in the London area we got nowt, even so there was lots of public transport delays and disruption due to bad weather. Now this morning when last nights low key (unexpected?)snow event has now covered SE London at least, we seem to have no weather related transport problems whatsoever. I put you you ladies and gentlemen, that some folk in the transport system are reacting to warnings not actual real events! Minds have been made up in advance. Am in Blackheath myself - lots lying this morning (about 4cm on the rail of the balcony, don't know what a scientific measurement might be), very pretty, nearly all gone now and not looking forward to what may be an icy night - getting up and down the hill is no fun on ice. -- Kate B PS 'elvira' is spamtrapped - please reply to 'elviraspam' at cockaigne if you want to reply personally |

I put you you ladies and gentlemen, that some folk in the transport system are reacting to warnings not actual real events! Minds have been made up in advance. I was on Brockley station at 0930 this morning, we were continually regaled with apologies over the tannoy for delays, short runnings and cancellations due to the "severe weather conditions" ie about 4cm of snow. They should go to Kashmir, 5 meters of snow, villages buried by avalanches. But to be honest, the trains are no better when its blue skies and warm sunshine. -- Martin |
