London Transport Snow Fail

It snowed last night in London. Not a regular snow-and-there-will-be-slush-in-the-morning. It was proepr snow – apparently the most in the past 20 years.

I woke up to the following status on London’s Tube network:

Not a good start.

Moreover, on their live news website, the tube map that shows the failed tube lines looks like a regular london tube map:

All of this mess due to the snow from last night. I guess I’ll be working from home today.

Edit: I managed to get into work (as my new motto from now on is to take the stairs) ! My usual 40 minute commute took 2 hours and it was freezing cold. To top it off I was impropriately attired for the occasion – forgot my gloves and wore leather shoes that had a thin groove-less rubber soul. As soon as I came into work I had to check that I had all 10 fingers and toes. Phew, all of them intact.
