Snow

"Snow causes widespread disruption
Snow has fallen across large parts of Wales making travel conditions treacherous in many places and closing more than 700 schools.

The Met Office issued a severe weather warning, saying some areas eventually could have up to 15cm (6in) of snow.

There was disruption to bus and train services and the temporary closure of Cardiff airport's runway, delaying Wales rugby fans' flights to Edinburgh.

Many roads have been closed amid warnings not to drive unless essential."

This is the latest news showing on the BBC wales news bit. Below is the information from the medical school:

Dear All Students,

Tonight and tomorrow have been forecast as heavy snow, please can you make arrangements to ensure you get to the OSCE exam on time, if you arrive later than the time you have been told to arrive then you may not be allowed to sit the exam

Basically, if it snows so badly that you can't move your car at all (it almost was on all the side streets in Cardiff at 0800 this morning) it's your fault that you have to resit the entire year having failed the OSCE for non-attendance. I like the way they think.

The snow has covered South Wales. The streets are no longer safe- watch out for drive-by snowballing by 4th year medics who have now finished their exams. Earlier I made a snowlady. I'm sure there will be a picture of her soon, I can't work the camera.

Revision

1. The House blog is still very much alive and well despite alarming reports to the contrary.
2. Certain members of the house are currently engaged in revising hard...



.....Ah the joys of Pscyhe revision! The future of the NHS is, as you can see, in very safe hands :-)
Right...some of us actually have 2months of work to learn and four men to feed in the next 48hrs!

Dying a death

Well, I fear this blog is dying a slow (and painful for me) death:( Facebook seems to have taken over the world and nobody seems at all interested in posting blogs anymore. Is this the beginning of the end... you decide...
