Foggy

The streets of London are paved with fog! As I stare out of the office window I can see a transparent blue sky with the sun light such as it has been fading fast. The are steam clouds coming up out of offices making it look like an industrial landscape. The Natwest tower looks golden like a temple while through the haze I can make out airliners floating through the misty skies.

Meanwhile at Heathrow the fog is keeping planes on the ground. So not the best time to fly to the other end of the country or to any part of Europe. And of course this is top news. I wonder what these people would say if the planes weren't grounded and because of the less than brillant weather conditions they were in the skies careering into each other?

So its the shortest day of the year. The Friday before Christmas. It's finally turned cold and the leaves have finally all fallen from the trees. Winter is here and that time of the year is here. Hibernation seems like a really good option!!

Travel safe everyone be it by road, rail or plane.
