Can you imagine those frozen Thames occasions of yesteryear or just London life come to that. Ken Livingstone holds a "Gay Frost Fayre" and to borrow from Shakespeare "So cold the Tennents Super Lager, came home frozen in the can" McDonalds fry Burgers on the frozen Thames and discarded chips (regular) freeze and become dangerous missiles in the hands of yobs. Or it's so bloody perishing that a man is mugged for his gloves whilst the new super Nokia is overlooked. or drunk man frozen to bus-stop as cheap very greasy Doner Kebab congeals and entraps it's new owner. A policeman on the scene says "If it wasn't for the extra chilli sauce this man could have died" So cruelly cold that Glue Sniifers set fire to the stuff before sniffing-just to stay warm. ..How about perverts and muggers demand warm weather payments during current freezing crisis Nah it won't happen. Roeder's not that good |

Roeder's not that good ![]() That's not the only reason why it won't happen. 1962-3 was colder than some winters in the past when the Thames had frozen in London, but it didn't happen then. The embankment of the river meant that its flow was more vigorous than it used to be. Also before the demolition of the old London Bridge, its narrow arches used to tend to cause the jamming together of ice floes, which helped the river ultimately to freeze solid. Also in 1962-3 power stations pumped a lot of warm water into the river. This may be less of a factor now that Battersea Power Station has closed. -- John Hall "Hard work often pays off after time, but laziness always pays off now." Anon |

That UKMO page has a big blue "cold" area over the UK but then when you click on more details it suggests warmer than average conditions till the end of January (until October - welcome, November onwards - no thanks...) So which one's right? Nick |
