snow day in London

Since yesterday afternoon it has been snowing in London. Unlike Canada London has not seen snow on an ordinary basis in a few years, so it is quite entertaining to watch my neighbours interact with the snow as though it were some form of alien landing. It is an official snow day in London. The buses have stopped, the tube is interrupted, the airports are closed.
Kids rub snow off of cars to test out the weight of cold, while grown men test out their footprints on the white matter. A couple just waved up at me probably finding it strange to see a person sitting by the window just watching people from behind their computer. Snow suits London. In that cold kind of removed way.
