did you hear the bloke from the Highways Agency? He was sitting there going 'we've gritted all the main roads in the rest of the country. it's not like we can do more.'

Which is actually true. the reports I heard about all the M roads were 'clear, gritted, easy'. our council even came round at 3:30 to re-fill our road's grit bucket.

I did pass one bus depot that's Old oak common/Ealing Broadway area. It was just one giant pile of snow. I think London Transport for some reason didn't believe it was necessary to clear out the bus depots to actually allow access.
