There's snow place like home


I went back to the UK for 9 days which coincided with heavy snow. On the Monday, I was due to take a group to see the Byzantium Exhibition at the Royal Academy but they couldn't open because not enough Security Guards had made it in so we went over the road to Fortnum's. The Queen's grocers were very pleased to see me in a pinstripe suit with a set of clearly well-heeled foreign visitors - the Manager came to apologise for the fact that not all of their floors were open and then opened one floor specially for us. Later in the week, we took them to Cirque du Soleil and Oxford where we met with some of the companies who we incubate. This photo was taken with my phone in the Old Bank Hotel on the High which looked Dickensian with the snow falling outside.
