-1°C, heavy snow.
It has fallen: We have a blanket of snow, no it’s more a quilted duvet of snow. It smothers and obscures all at ground level. This morning’s foot prints have gone, and the temperature is now falling. Pure, white crisp snow makes the night brighter and more interesting. This kind of snow won’t be all slushy by morning, it may even excuse us from a day at work tomorrow. Now that would be divine.
Orange are silly: Buy £10 or more credit by the 27th of the month and get 300 free texts. But in practice…. miss the deadline, buy some next month when you find you did need it after all and get the free texts anyway. Oh well.

I love the blanket of silence which accompanies the snow. It muffles well. Orange are very silly. They told me that for every £10 I top up they’ll put £1 in my new phone fund. (I don’t want a new phone fund.) To take account of the VAT change they say. I’d rather have £11 of credit for my £10 thanks all the same.

Yeah, I’ve had that one too. So it takes over two years to save up for a cheap phone. I’ll take the discount too.

Had more than a blanket of snow. London ground to a halt. I knew the snow was coming, so why didn’t Transport for London? No buses, severe delays on the tube, so no work, and no pay. I’ve seen one solitary gritter all day. Probably won’t be able to get far tomorrow.

And the snow has all gone, apart from a light dusting over the Downs in the distance. It was nice while it lasted.
