[edit: added the pictures]

Got very excited yesterday - it snowed properly for the first time!

Was at work when it first snowed, but that didn't count, cos I was stuck inside. But, went home, and when I got off the tube, it was snowing properly :). Such a cool thing - but I'm sure in a week or so, I'll be thoroughly annoyed at it. Got home, grabbed the camera, and headed back out to take some photos so you can share the excitement... :) It was so exciting - I felt like a kid. I'm sure anyone who saw me taking photos thought I was an absolute idiot, but who cares. Cath, one of my new housemates, had a bit of a laugh at me too... :)

Felt that I should get involved in this political thing for a bit:

The Committee to Protect Bloggers has announced today (Feb 22nd)  as Free Arash and Mojtaba Day.

Free Mojtaba and Arash Banner

These guys have been imprisioned by the Iranian Authorities for speaking out against a crackdown on the free press.

I just sent off a letter to the Iranian Ambassador to Australia, adding my voice - if you feel strongly enough about this, feel free to do the same. The Free Arash and Mojtaba Day page has suggestions on how to do something.
