Hi Sarah747 yes work on your tan, but remember it wont last long here in London, that's what happens to me everytime i go on holiday although im naturaly tanned, so i only need top ups once in awhile ( Being Portuguese ).
But if you want to see snow then your coming to the right side of the world. You can see snow around Europe.
Have a nice trip back to the Uk and who knows maybe i'll see you one of these days in BA's Compass Centre for a coffee.
