Away from the City

Like most of us in the UK I've been trapped by snow - that unexpected event that occurs with reassuring predictability every couple of years - and the indignities of a 6 1/2 hour train journey home after work with equally predictable cancellations, engineering works and miserable vacuity of those nominally in charge of our third world rail infrastructure.

But then, that's what I get for working in Canary Wharf (London) and living in deepest rural Oxfordshire. I invested this year in building an office in the garden, thanks to Green Retreats, so I can VPN in whilst working away from the house - much to my wife's relief. Perfect timing.

So I took the dog out for a walk to admire the snow and remember just why I live here.

Seasons' Greetings to All.
