Nasty. Nasty. CU in London in a few days. Our annual London and points beyond trip begins then. How's the weather in London, France, and Belgium this year?

Will do, and thanks much. We'll be out of the snow then. We are staying in the V&A Museum area.

Excellent. Even if we have a heavy snowfall our public transport (within the city at least) is OK but just a quick heads-up there is talk of a tube-strike on New Year's Eve in London. If it goes ahead, get your concierge to book your cabs to/from your evening location (if you're going out that is)

Have fun.

ps - not sure if you mean V&A in Cromwell Rd or Tavistock St - but both are ace locations for visitors

He didnt do anything - all black cars in that have been driven around in London for the last week or more without a wash look pretty much like IMU's. A mix of rain, sludge, and road salt shite take car of it.

Exactly what SKK said. I would clean it but it's too cold outside at present

My car is blue, but it still looks like IMU's at the moment. And if I wash it (which is unlikely at sub-freezing temperatures) it will look exactly the same in a day or so. As SKK said, salt...
