This morning I listened to the news and learned of the wintry storm (read blizzard) that has literally brought London to a screeching halt. Any one who has lived in London can attest to the world class and updated snow removal equipment in place - NOT!
The snow storm which is the heaviest in 18 years led Mayor Boris Johnson to make the following comment:
" This is the right kind of snow, it's just the wrong kind of quantities ."
The snow also caused a Cyprus Airways flight to slip off a taxiway at Heathrow, leaving its front wheel stuck in grass. Fortunately no one was hurt.
All this thinking about London made me think of the good times I had there -
"For Queen and Country" of course!
I reminisced a bit about a place called the Jazz Cafe in Camden, London.
There I saw Swing Out Sister live and in person! They put on a great show. Here's a cut from a few years back dedicated to all those who are waiting for the snow to melt.
I hope you enjoy it.
