My family and me.
So, it snowed. I got stuck in traffic after a curry and Miriam had to walk home through the mighty blizzard. The photo doesn't really capture the full horror of a full 5" of snow - who knows, perhaps more by tomorrow. Madingley hill was chaos and I shall certainly cycle to work tomorrow as it will be quicker. And I still haven't dug the dahlias up. Oops.
Update: it turned out to be wonderful snow, just right for children, Daniel was out in it all day. I was at work, and it proved possible to cycle in and back. We had a brief exciting power cut which reminded us how fragile our western life is; the heating goes off too, of course. More forecast for tomorrow. Did Piers predict all this?

Five inches?
You are complaining about a mere five inches?
And you're 3--4 degrees of latitude further north than here...

Obviously you didn't sacrifice enough virgins.

Five inches - it is only four in Waterbeach. And do I understand that you normally drive to work?
[Nope, and I didn't that day, I only drove to the curry cos the weather looked a bit rubbish. It would have been quicker cycling back :-).
Sorry not to see you, or John. Happy Christmas -W]

You should have driven it would have been quicker. Nobody else was on the road. If only everyday was like that, only without the snow.
