Mild winters are ace, living oop north (sort of) way out in the

the village for supplies and outdoor activities are so much easier and
there's the added bonus of all you snowballers throwing your rattles out
of the pram!!

I love mild me, mild, mild, mild.

Seriously though, one of my best friends is partially disabled.
She is unsteady on her feet and needs a walking stick at all
times. When the weather is cold the local kids' idea of fun is to
turn the only pathway out of her block into an icy slide. Bearing
in mind her osteoporosis if she fell on the stone pavement she
might never walk again.
Please spare a thought for whom snow causes serious difficulties
in everyday life.
