I expect that the frozen wastelands of the north will be suffering again this year.

Bit nippy, 13.5CI do have some old surgical stockings I could bung a few spuds and a manglewurzel in. Should go well with a bit of roadkill if you northeners are feeling the pinch.
Bright sunshine up here today, and I hear the midlands are going to get temps of -8 tonight!
Yet yesterday according to the paper, thousands of children were given a day off in anticipation of the snow that was forecast and all we got was about one inch of snow.Were we made of sterner stuff in years gone by??
People just don't work local anymore.
I expect that the frozen wastelands of the north will be suffering again this year. I have just read this in a local paper dated 1933. Girl guide groups on the Island worked together to prepare Christmas stockings for children and elderly people living in distressed areas of the country.Mrs Mynard from the Shanklin Rangers group organised the effort, in response to an advert in the magazine, The Guider, asking for them to get involved in the scheme.The girls from the Island packed more than 250 stockings, which were sent to people in the North of England.
