Okay, Okay, Okay. Snow has hit the British Isles and the whole country has gone hysterical, simply unable to cope with a weather condition that isn’t rain, wind or the dreaded rain+wind combo fusion. The Filter office is not excluded in the mass-hysteria, and I’m sorry to have to report that basically all of the development team – including the CEO have run home – terrified that the snow will render the roads useless and that they’ll have to spend the night digging in the ground for nutritious fresh plant shoots.
I’d like to add that the snow hasn’t really started to settle properly here in Bath – I even went outside to try and take a picture of the office building to try and prove that it was snowing – but to be honest you couldn’t actually see any snow when I took the picture. So, I had to steal a picture from The Gruaniad.
Here’s a playlist/random-bunch-of-songs-about-snow that I threw together to celebrate the fact that it isn’t rainy or windy.
The Twilight Sad – Cold Days From The Birdhouse
Mirah – Cold Cold Water
Elbow – Snowball
Animal Collective – Winters Love
Aloha – Ice Storming
Damien Rice – Cold Water
The Fleet Foxes – White Winter Hymnal
Shearwater – The Snow Leopard
Scott Walker – White Winter Nights
Death Cab For Cutie – The Ice Is Getting Thinner
