Snow, Snooooow, Snow-Snow, Snow!

Written by Matt B · first published 07/01/2010

It seems that a good blanket of the white stuff has fallen recently and the whole world has gone mad.

Still, we have faired somewhat better than our other Kentish cousins some of whom are without power this morning. However good luck trying to get anywhere today. The policde are warning people to leave the car at home while the train network is running an "emergency service" only (which seems to mean that regular tickets might be valid on the fast train - best to ask someone first though) and Stage Coach seem to have most of their busses in the shed.

Quite why Stage Coach are unable to field the magority of thier buses when Eastonways were able to get most of their buses out is baffeling. After all they fleace us all twice taking local tax money from TDC and then by hiking their prices any chance they get.

But it's not all doom, gloom and a lack of corporate responsibility as many of us get to stay home and make snow men. What fun!

Send us your snowman pics to the usual address and let's see what Thanet makes of the snowy extra holiday at home. It'll not be here for long.

The address to send stuff in case you don't know it:

[Naughty IP: 72.92.12.128] There is not so much snow here in Philadelphia lately. It was a small snowstorm that was only 6 inch, and then that was the end of it.
