London Today....

Keira Knightley for Vogue January 2011 edition
Photographed by Mario Testino and styled by Lucinda Chambers



The snow in London has been quite incredible, lots of it and arriving and settling extremely quickly!
Despite it being forecast, it did arrive sooner than expected....and I got stranded....what should have been a 20 minute journey took over 5 hours....quite an adventure, altho not one I want to repeat anytime soon!

And the snow meant I didn't make it to Wales :(
Still, at least I'm not stuck at the airport trying to get home to friends and family like many people are....



Having had several weeks of seemingly non-stop events, Day 1 of the school holidays has been sheer bliss! Not having to get up or even go out, we watched Christmas movies, had a carpet picnic and have just finished our gingerbread houses.
Above is a real work of art....below are those by my children, works of art in their own special way of course :)

(Sorry about the picture quality!)



It's supposed to be -7 again tonight and more snow is due....Christmas movies and Baileys for me...."Love Actually", Albert Finney in "Scrooge"....and I'm working on finishing the boxset of "Grey's Anatomy" season 6 :)
Keep warm!!
