Over/Here in the UK it's really been snowing hard. In our little patch we have had about 3cm and the temperatures have plummetted to below zero (Celsius, of course). Everywhere there are signs of panic with people being told to stockpile food. It is a terrible situation. No one knows how they will manage to survive as temps are forecast as low as -15!! (only at night, and probably only in the Scottish highlands). Only this evening our power was cut for about 3 hours (yes HOURS not DAYS). Life will be unbearable for most of the inhabitants for several days. Me? I couldn't care a jot. Always enough food to last a month in the freezer, enough fuel for the generator if needed, etc etc. I do feel for the OAPs and infirm who cannot get about so well, even in the better weather, but this cold snap with snow is really a big joke. Only in Britain do we fall apart at the thought of a hard winter spell!!! Regards, RAB
