London covered in snow...

I guess its old news that London was covered in a blanket of snow last week. It was really fun though for us, since we need not take any public transport to work. However, what normally would be a 5 minute walk to work became more like 15 minutes, in part because we were trying to tread carefully cos the snow was slippery, but also because we were so busy admiring the place filled covered with snow and taking photos as we walked to work! It was a blessing that we need not travel cos I heard the horror stories of people taking up to 3 hours to travel to office. It was also a convenient excuse for many people to "work from home" though.

Anyway, last week passed relatively quickly cos no one came to the office on Monday and few came on Tuesday. On Thursday, I had my wisdom tooth extracted and while I would normally be moaning and whingeing about it, it was actually a relatively painless experience. Of course, the fact that I had dental sedation where the dentist injected me with a cocktail of sedatives and codine had no part in the process... heh, who am I kidding. I think the dentist must be thinking, I've never seen someone so scared of needles before. But seriously, anyone who has dentist-phobia should undergo dental sedation for their dental surgeries. I doubt I'd go for one without being sedated.

The weekend was relatively uneventful. We went for our usual Cafe Japan treat on Saturday afternoon. Realised that the master chef has sold the place but after he has passed down his skills to the current chef. I must say that while the food quality took a dip in the last few weeks, it has improved again to a standard almost as high as before. We then went to watch the movie "The Wrestler" in the evening after doing the week's grocery shopping. Next day was Church, dim sum lunch, "Revolutionary Road" movie, then dinner and Settlers of Catan and Adrian and Sharon. A fun but uneventful weekend...

Here are some pics of the snow outside our place..
