Bonkers weather

There has really been some bonkers weather this week and as the snow and ice begin to dissapear today under pouring rain, at least I managed to have a little fun in the snow whilst on a trip with work.

I felt like I was in a winter wonderland, on holiday somewhere in the Alps not at the end of the Docklands Light Railway on the outskirts of London.  It will stay in my mind for the rest of my life as a magical moment.  I stood and watched as the park gradually filled up with more people, perhaps they couldn't get to work or school was closed...snowboarding, and sledging down the hill on various sledges, laughing and giggling.  I thought if I was there with my children that I would have let them have a day off school, these are memories that really do last a lifetime.

By the way...if you ever drop off anyone at St Pancras - you have 2 minutes!  This made me laugh as I walked past the sign.

And on a final note about bonkers weather...I thought this was such a fantastic headline "Policemen ticked off for tobogganing on shields"
