Ice flakes from heaven.

Happy new year blippers, the new year's icy hand of weather at last strikes.We always seem unhappy till we've seen some snow, then we quickly get fed up with it as the catalogue figures of icy accidents roles in to pad out the national and "international" news, the newscasters logging off from their laptop's (they used to put their pen away) with a happy fire rescue story of a pensioners cat rescued from the icy blast by a plucky crew, who role back to HQ for a game of pool and the pensioners biscuits for tea.
