Watched a repeat of the programme on the freeze of '47 on Ch 5 Saturday night after I got back from City. Properly put this weekend's storm in perspective. Power cuts, near starvation and floods. 'a bit wet and windy' just doesn't compare.
Watch the 2002 animated film, Ice Age. It puts the freeze of '47 in perspective. A sabre toothed tiger and a wooly mammoth traversing frozen seas, dangerous falling icicles and bottomless ice gorges returning a human baby to its tribe.
