Snow in London – part 2

2 02 2009

To follow on from my previous post (Snow in London), here are some of the photos that I took today while ‘playing tourist’ in London. Well, I thought I may as well, since it seems that when more than a dusting of snow falls in the south-east of the UK and almost all public transport grinds to a standstill.

And we’ve not seen the last of it either – as I type / compose this post, I’m watching ever more big, fat snowflakes add themselves to the city’s new winter blanket.

So glad you like the photos! And I’m also really glad I took the time to go for a long walk on Monday to take them all. :D
