London: Snowy Days Are Here Again!

“LONDON: Europe saw little respite yesterday from the Arctic conditions that closed airports and disrupted travel over the weekend before Christmas, traditionally one of the busiest times of the year.

London's Heathrow, the world's busiest international airport, which was forced to close both its runways for much of Saturday because of heavy snow, was not accepting inbound flights yesterday and said only a few planes would be leaving.

About 30 tonnes of snow were being shifted away from each parking stand around the planes, but ice was making it dangerous for the aircraft to be moved”. – The Peninsula, 20-Dec-2010, excerpt. (REUTERS)

HARRODS

Harrods is a high-end department store located on Brompton Road in Knightsbridge, in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, London, England.

The store occupies a 5-acre (20,000 m2) site and has over one million square feet (90,000 m2) of selling space in over 330 departments. The UK's second-biggest shop, Oxford Street's Selfridges, is a little over half the size with 540,000-square-foot (50,000 m2) of selling space.

The Harrods motto is Omnia Omnibus Ubique—All Things for All People, Everywhere. Several of its departments, including the seasonal Christmas department and the Food Hall, are world famous.

Throughout its history, the store has had a total of five owners. On 8 May 2010, Mohamed Al-Fayed sold the store to Qatar Holdings for £1.5 billion.  - Wikipedia

If some people wants to get into a mall or department store to cool down, in London, during this time of the year, gets into this place to warm up as this huge department store has a nice and warm working heaters.

Harry Potter 7 - Part 1: I've been there!

       The other night I watched Harry Potter 7 - Part 1 in Cinema and was suddenly delighted to see one of the scene that made me say, "Oh! I've been there!".  The classic scene was taken from one of the streets in Central London. The scene was when the trio (Harry Potter and friends) disappeared from the party tent attacked by the villain, then found theirselves reappeared in London infront of the red bus under the famous SANYO digital neon lighted billboard.  If you haven't seen the movie yet, see photos below and watch out for that scene in cinema.
