And the snow begins to fall...

Looked outside one evening, and to our disbelief, the air was thick with snowflakes of an unheard of density and magnitude! Dispite the bitter cold, we had to go outside and see it for ourselves. The fall was so heavy, that it piled up on our clothes as we walked about, and it was hard to look in pretty much any direction without getting snowflakes in your eyes. Just as well we had the big woolly hats we bought in Stockholm...

Down on the pier, underneath the London Eye, and overlooking Parliament:

My crappy snowman. The snow was beautiful to work with, and I would have made more of an effort, but my thumbs just about fell off while posing for this photo - it was so damn cold!
