Latest from snowbound Petersfield - #6

There were just two of us in today.

One was in Dublin for a meeting; one had a day off; and three worked from home.

If anything, today was even more treacherous than last week, as fresh snow had settled on what had become sheet ice ... though some of it was quite good.

The daring duo are currently preparing themselves for the yomp home. The 3/4mile trip will take us the best part of 30-40 minutes, if this morning's effort is anything to go by. And of course it's now dark.

"It's 3/4mile to home; we got four layers of clothing, a full tank of coffee, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses. Hit it..."

Still three people in.

We have milk, but no coffee or sugar. Curse you whoever you are...

This is how it looks currently - we reckon we've got about eight inches here, which is unheard of in Petersfield.

Don't suppose anybody fancies airlifting in three curries?

9.41am third member of staff arrives ... with milk! Gold star for the gold top.

Three working from home. Or that's what they claim...
