Ice Age cometh...

It's all very pretty with the snow but the cold is really getting to everyone I meet these days. In the UK our heating bills are exorbitant. The longer the cold will last the poorer we will all be. Spare a thought for the elderly in this country who die because they cannot afford to heat their homes and who have to choose between "heat" or "eat".

It is estimated that around 5,000 people have perished in the UK since the extreme cold weather began.

I took this photo today and it was exactly 0 degrees C at the time.
