As if getting stranded in Philadelphia while US Airways sorted out about 1800 passengers from California wasn’t bad enough, I had three voicemails on my phone when I returned from neighbours talking about a tree down at my house. Columbus got smacked with a tremendous ice storm that knocked down branches and took out power to hundreds of thousands while I was in England, happily retreating from work and clients…
Good times. Well, at least the tree didn’t hit the house; it only took out the lamp-post, which I wasn’t entirely fond of in any case.
