Well, at least it was!! But this time it was proper snow.

Kat and I got on the bus from Seoul on Saturday and noticed that it had started snowing. Within 20 minutes about 3 inches of snow had fallen, everything had turned white and the bus was travelling at around 20 miles and hour because of the treacherous driving conditions! As we crawled along the motorway we saw cars in the outside lane stuck in the snow, cars parked in the crash barrier where they had skidded of the road and other cars who had simply collided with each other. It seems Koreans are as incapable of dealing with snow as the English! I guess in their defense it did come on extremely quickly.

It hasn’t snowed since Saturday night but it has been too cold for the snow to melt. Instead many of the pavements have turned to sheet ice making the walk to and from work hazardous to say the least! Kat managed to land on her arse yesterday! He he.
