Snow problem this time

With the year's second snowfall overnight I wanted to make sure that I didn't have to suffer a similar tortuous journey to the one on the 24th January. Additionally, given that I am about to use up some of last year's annual leave by having a "long weekend", the prospect of a five day (rather than four) break, seemed quite appealing.

Now being an honest individual I didn't want to lie, but whilst the snow had fallen it wasn't more than about an inch thick.

Undaunted, I sent the following message to my boss: -

"Dear Boss,

I am afraid I will not be able to make it into the office today. I opened my front door this morning to find 20 cm of snow outside. I am attaching a photo to prove it to you.

Yours Sussex Blogger, your honest employee."
