there was in fact two upsides to be found in the disastrous flight-delay situations of recent days. Well, a) being the comedy value of having been to Helsinki and b) that Jamie and I managed to find a day's overlap in London where there should have been none. I left my house to find snow on the ground, but I traipsed gaily off to Picadilly and the Fortnum's ice-cream parlour anyway because their ice-cream (strawberry and 12 year old balsimic vinegar / Amedei chocolate) is that good. We went halves on a banana boat and an Esterhazy cake, whilst Jamie regaled me with her typically comic tales - this time involving sleeping on the ticketing counter at Heathrow whilst living off mince pies.
