Luckily nobody came the night.
This morning, I left home earlier than usual to catch an earlier train as the weather was not good.
I was happy that I got a faster train but at the middle of journey, the train has broken down and we had to wait for the another one for some time. I was late to work after all.
I hate to be late. I did not want to make excuses of the bad weather.

Well the trains are enough of a pain without this snow. Do you use the London Overgound? I hope your employer understands. It's through no fault of your own.
Sorry, I forgot to mention London. It was alright, but I had some problems with the train myself. It was delayed by an hour going both there and back (this was before the snow started down South too). I had to stand up for three hours coming back as the train didn't stop until it got to York. This was while I was carrying some heavy baggage (including my mother's birthday present) from Oxford Circus. I could have gotten a seat if Network Rail hadn't made such a mess of King's Cross. The station is heavily partitioned between the waiting area and the platforms and there was no announcement of which platform I needed until two or so minutes before the train's (late) departure. Everybody was fighting to get on first and I could barely move. If I hadn't fought my way through the crowd to the information kiosk I wouldn't have known what the Hell was going on.
I didn't get home until midnight.
