We had about 3-4 inches this morning and it's been steadily snowing all day so not sure what it will be like on the way home. Have to say I agree with Phil, the amount of people on forums who find it good news that they can't get in to work is quite astounding. No wonder some places want to bring in a foreign workforce...I mean, look at Will

My relief was due to fly out today to get to the rig for Wednesday. He flies from Aberdeen-Heathrow-Cairo. Problem is, Heathrow is shut He says there's no snow in Aberdeen yet but it's due later.
I'm hoping work will re-route him through Amsterdam as it looks like flights are getting in and out of there ok. If not, I'll be spending an extra few days on the rig Depends how much extra cost would be involved switching from BA to KLM

Finally started snowing again and I've just found out that the chairman managed to drive into an abandoned car at 50mph on his way to work this morning, oops. He was the only person having trouble getting in, but then he does live in Rothley, which is pretty much in the middle of nowhere.

The only thing I missed today was Body Pump class - the gym called me to say it was cancelled - how nice of them!

Same; the more it snows the faster the rest is melting
