London's Going Snoware

We sprung out of bed this morning to run out the back and check out the garden. Forecasts were spot on ... 20 cm (no exaggeration) of fresh powder snow had dropped overnight! We quickly dressed in our layers of thermals, and donned our gloves, scarves and beanies - grabbed the camera and we're off to go and play! We became tourists and checked out all the London landmarks.

Sandwiched between play we dropped into work to show our faces...

For a moment, Greg had considered skiing down Primrose Hill but his better judgement prevailed.

Frozen angels at Brompton Cemetery
Telephone booths donn a new wintery hat
In Green Park - met a new man

The view from work - Westminster Abbey and the London Eye

St James's Park Lake frozen over, Buckingham Palace in the background

Icicles
Buckingham Palace and a snowy fountain

London tourist shots are not complete without an Underground logo

Queen Victoria cops it

All the Queen's horses and all the Queen's men trot down the Mall

Green Park

Regents Park tube station

In the backyard

Dunno what these birds are, but reckon they're cold
