Gatwick in the snow

It snowed in London today and despite being prepared it turned out that Gatwick Airport couldn't fully cope with the demands placed upon it by British Airways. Which was why I found myself in the off peak hours hanging around waiting for a plane back to Edinburgh.

Airports change at night. The urgency is gone and there is an air of resignation. People shop idly and the coffee shops seem calmer. There is nothing else to do but wait
