Now, the weather is so delightful . . let it snow. Let it! SNOW!



The white stuff looks fantastic on postcards or even dancing on the small screen. Especially when the viewer happens to be relaxing, parked up in front of a vibrant fire with a racy book. Can you see the mulled wine, yet, reader? (Note: The Book Burning for 16th January is still very on: so far). However, when one has to travel back to Bradford, westward towards the Peninnes and along the M62 and M602, the merest mention of snow, brings more than a small tremor of alarm.

I checked up on the Met Office late tonight referencing tomorrow's forecast for the whole of the UK, and it does not look good Monday and Tuesday: emphasis Yorkshire and the Humber. Very heavy emphasis on the M62 and the M602! Well, reader, what I will do is this: I shall check the Met Office and MM at work, and also  with the folks in Bradford for a weather update in real time up until about 1600, and then, if the weather proves too much, I will decide whether to swap the SMART for the Mercedes, or indeed whether to postpone travel altogether until a break arrives in the cold snap.

If you have any news on the College or University closure for Monday, 5th January, please get in touch!
