I haven't heard much about Denmark in particular but it seems that it was bad in the whole of Western Europe. And people living close to the Northsea were hit badly :evil: We live about a mile from the coast and it was pretty bad for us but maybe that is just because we are not used to it. I have seen trains in Scandinavia going full speed through a few feet of snow while we had an average of 2 inches and almost all trains came to a stop :x On the roads it was even worse and we had traffic jams until far after midnight, in the evening there was no road in the country without delays. And I heard the horror stories about making 10 mile trips in 4 hours :(

We had no real trouble except for working a few extra hours, Marjo was supposed to go home at 5 PM but the girl working the late shift came at 7 instead of 1PM. So I decided to work late and drive home together with Marjo. Tonight we had a little snow and as marjo doesn't like driving in bad weather Matthew voluntered and went to work with her.

Needless to say that the convertible is still in the garage waiting for better times :mrgreen:
