Yes, St Albans is experiencing the familiar sight of snow yet again. Nearby Luton airport has had to cancel many flights due to heavy snowfalls on the runway. However, local schools have remained open.The road conditions are reasonably good, if you manage to ignore the huge potholes! More snow is expected tomorrow night.]]> http://stalbanslife.co.uk/tourism/travel/snow-drops-on-snowdrops/feed 0 http://stalbanslife.co.uk/leisure/rspca-near-st-albans http://stalbanslife.co.uk/leisure/rspca-near-st-albans#comments Thu, 18 Feb 2010 09:40:10 +0000 Maria Larmer http://stalbanslife.co.uk/?p=695 For those new to St Albans and who may not be aware, there is a RSPCA centre nearby. The Southridge RSPCA Animal Centre is ten minutes from St Albans town centre. If you want to adopt an animal, there is great range of cats, dogs, some ponies, chickens and other little creatures needing a loving home. We adopted our cat from there.]]> http://stalbanslife.co.uk/leisure/rspca-near-st-albans/feed 1 http://stalbanslife.co.uk/food-and-drink/cafes-food-and-drink/the-flat-whites-have-arrived-in-st-albans http://stalbanslife.co.uk/food-and-drink/cafes-food-and-drink/the-flat-whites-have-arrived-in-st-albans#comments Thu, 18 Feb 2010 09:34:52 +0000 Maria Larmer http://stalbanslife.co.uk/?p=691 t is with great joy that I can announce that Flat White coffees can now to be enjoyed in at least three (maybe more?) local cafes! Initially, they were only to be found at the Merchant Tea and Coffee Co but recently they have appeared on the menus of Costa and Starbucks! Costa’s (skinny) Flat White was absolutely perfect. Starbuck’s Flat White also looked and tasted great but was only available in full-fat milk.]]> http://stalbanslife.co.uk/food-and-drink/cafes-food-and-drink/the-flat-whites-have-arrived-in-st-albans/feed 0
