We braved the snow and ice tonight to go to the World Darts Championship in Frimley Green. As the announcer said, "darts is the only sport where the spectators are more fit than the competitors".

We're having the "worst storm in 50 years" in Surrey and for once the Met Office (the weather people) got this one right. Its been snowing non-stop since about 11pm last night and now at 4:42pm, its still coming down very heavily. No work today and I cant imagine that things will be drastically improved tomorrow. Hooray for snow days!!

144/365


Highlight of today: my bus home from work was a double-decker! (not that you can tell from this photo...)

Three things I've learned about double-decker buses:
1. They hit trees and it makes a horrible screeching noise
2. There is no heating up top! (and it was freezing tonight)
3. On this particular one, there was only one stop button up top, so I had to walk to the front of the bus while it was moving to hit the button.

I'll stick with my regular bus, please.

We went to Richmond today and came through Twickenham on the way home. This is not a flood, but the River Thames at high tide! Did you know a river could be tidal? I didnt!

Also, we went to an Indian market in Southall and guess what David found?! MOUNTAIN DEW! Who would have thought??

Welcome to the first day of the decade!

We apparently had the same idea as everyone else in Northwest Surrey and went to Virginia Water for a morning walk. There were tons of people and dogs there, but we managed to find Mirra some space of her own.

Oh and hangover? None! Hooray for egg sandwiches before bed!
