Had some heavy snow overnight here good few cm. lovely to see.

just watching the news about the snow in london etc. and just wondering has anyone noticed that its really only easyjet that cancels all flights (then they disappear and close there help desk) no help from them. happened to be before. then you see other airlines have only cancelled 1 or 2 flights and they keep their desk open to help customers and give out vouchers. easyjet do nothing of the sort you even have to rebook your flight yourself at the internet cafes in the airport.

Morning all. Been snowing with a bit of hail mixed in since last night. Nothing spectacular but nice to see and we are into our 3rd day of lying snow. Think theres a bit more snow to come later today. Would be nice to get another cm or two. :unsure:
