Anyone know what it's like at Heathrow?. My son's girlfriend is due to arrive there tomorrow from New Mexico.

Living in an area where it's often 100 degrees and where the average temperature is over 80 degrees for close to five months of the year, she's been quite excited about the prospect of seeing the snow - though a covering of snow and being snowbound will doubtless provoke different reactions.

I don't think Valerenga will be sharing that view when he arrives from Norway tomorrow. :P

For a moment, I thought you said your girlfriend was due to arrive tomorrow :whistle::giggle:

Did anybody else notice that pile of snow in the middle of the carpark at MK yesterday? How long has it been since it last snowed? It isn't even that cold. :dunno:
