Oh my God!

I just looked out the window. There is a 2cm layer of snow on the ground. This wouldn't be noteworthy in many other parts of the world, but it never snows in London. We have our own microclimate here, and the temperature simply does not get cold enough for snow. Occasionally we get the sort of snow that melts as soon as it touches the ground, but this has settled - not just on cars, but on the pavement and the grass.

Oh my God! Snow!!

Snow!

It settled everywhere in SE London... The entrance to our flat is covered in a layer of very slippery ice which can only be walked on in the fashion of the penguin (even now in the evening!). I had much fun cycling to work this morning as one of the roads up here had turned into an ice rink, filled with cars that didn't dare/weren't able to move. On the plus side, it looks very pretty :).
