University shut due to 'extremely hazardous' conditions. But unfortunately so are my children's and wife's school - so any dream of a peaceful day working from home shattered.

Then, as I follow email and Twitter, I find the Library is under pressure to open and is going to see what it can do with whatever staff can walk in from 12-3.

Hang on... what happened to the 'extremely hazardous' conditions for the rest of the university?

At least a 7 mile tramp in the snow isn't expected of me so I just feel mildly guilty about not being there.
