I did think that it was all archive footage, since the papers were full of coverage yet there was no snow at all in London. And then this morning the pavements were covered. When I went out for a bite to eat at lunchtime I took my camera with me…

Unable to feel my toes and fully stocked with lunch and dinner, I went back home. I’ve not been out since. It’s warm here.
