More Snow

Hi Everyone!

Just a quick update. On Thursday night, a few of us from the vet clinic in West Bromwich went out for dinner at Chiquitos, a Mexican restaurant in Birmingham. We had a lovely meal and a great night. It was nice to have a social gathering before I left the clinic. On Saturday morning, I finished up at work and headed to Jess and Andrew's house in Hitchin. It was quite sad to leave the clinic for the last time, but I know that I'll be back to visit one day, if I'm ever back in the UK.Jess and Andrew picked me up from the train station on Saturday afternoon and we went to a movie that evening. We saw Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, which was very enjoyable. That night we had Chinese takeaway for dinner.

Yesterday morning after breakfast, we went to a Greyhound Rescue Centre, where we took a few of the dogs out for a walk. In the evening, we went out to a pub for dinner. It was a lovely meal, and I have to say that I had one of the best desserts I think I've ever had- it was called a Tiramisu plate, but only because it was made up of the chocolate and coffee flavours, not because it was an actual tiramisu.

All yesterday Andrew was wishing for snow (because he is a teacher he gets a day off school if it's heavy enough), and this morning he got his wish... it has snowed heavily all over England. It has been particularly heavy in London which has played havoc with the transport system. I did manage to catch a train in to London and get across the city to my hotel on the Underground, but I have little hope that I'll get to the airport tomorrow morning or even if my plane will be taking off to Prague! Many flights were cancelled today from all of London's airports, and the Gatwick express was not running to or from the airport.

After checking into my hotel this afternoon, I went for a walk around the streets of Westminster and took some photos.Hopefully my next blog will be about Prague - if I ever get there!

Love,
