Reading through the comments from some of the media around the world I particularly enjoyed reading the following from the U.S. press:

And, just because I don't like submitting blogs without any pictures, here is one of the steps to/from my local supermarket. I put a picture on the blog some months ago showing the dire condition of them but, finally, they are being repaired. Has Mr Health and Safety finally arrived in Moscow?
