Huge storms this weekend across England. It blew rain at gale force which brought down trees and powerlines. Most trainlines aren't running and those that are do so perilously. West Sussex was hardest hit -- the flooding continues. I'm glad I didn't have to commute from outside of London (although I'm slighly jealous of those that got to stay home.) Finally, England has a good reason to talk about the weather!



Had dinner last night with New Yorkers Monique Te Selle and Lucy Lieberman at Exhibition in South Kensington. Very careful presentation and lovely taste.
