We got chills, they're multiplying

ITV News tonight: "The wintry weather is back".

Ummm......excuse me, for some of us it hasn't been away! Freezing/below freezing temperatures and snow which refuses to melt is now the norm for us. This has resulted in the realisation that none of our winter fashion boots are actually up to the job of coping with this weather, so that's led to an acute shortage of wellies as people rush to the shops to snap up some very colourful patterned boots which would otherwise remain on shoe shop shelves from one festival season to another.

Let's go back, way back, into the mists of time. When such things as gritter lorries existed, and you had things like grit salt bins. Back in the day they used to clear the pavements so that we pedestrians could actually walk on them; now every day is like an audition for "Dancing on Ice" - although most of us are more Todd Carty than Torvill and Dean :))))
