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.

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.
