The Greenwich Winter Olympics — February 2, 2009 |
Instead of being treated to a talk by Prof Ian Morison, we were able to watch ‘the winter Olympics’. A little snow brought London to a grinding halt. The buses were withdrawn (!), schools closed, and the trains and DLR juddered to a halt. Whatever will we do if we get some real weather? Detroit Met Airport has more snow-ploughs than all of Greater London. The kids (and many Mums and Dads too), loved the time off in the snow. This picture spread from Ian McDowell. |
