Una guardia scozzese all'ingresso del St. James's Palace di Londra

A soldier of the Scots Guards peers out of his sentry box at St. James’s Palace in London, Tuesday, Nov. 30, 2010. An early winter freeze-up has caused travel chaos across Britain with air and rail passengers as well as motorists all struggling to complete their journeys. Almost every corner of Britain woke up to between 2cm and 10cm of fresh snow, with Britain’s east coast worst hit by flurries and sub-zero temperatures. (AP Photo/Sang Tan)
