Newspapers predict the nation is going to be besieged with huge snowfalls every year, but it never seems to happen.
Just a cheap way of filing their newspapers and websites, now that they hardly employ any journalists anymore.

Anyone claiming that they know exactly what the weather will be on a particular day more than a week or so away is lying to you.

Oh I remember it well. Especially getting the snow out of the attic before it had a chance to melt!

Not yet a (state) pensioner but I remember too.

Ice on the insides of the windows. Snow drifts three times my height (though I was just 4 so everything looked bigger!).

Warmest Christmas eve since 1997.
We hardly seem to have a winter anymore.

I've had to scrape ice from my car a grand total of once so far this winter, and probably twice last winter tops.
