FROZEN FEEDING THE DUCKS

The temperature has not risen above 0 degrees for 2 days. It is bitterly cold and ice is forming around the edges of the river .The ducks have to slide towards the bank to get the food that is offered to them.

ICE SKATING in ENGLAND



Warmer winters have meant fewer naturally frozen over venues on lakes and rivers for ice skating .More recently temporary venues have been set up in cities across England. London has Somerset House and The Tower of London .
Cambridge has one on Parker's piece.
Fun to do, lovely to watch. No special clothes are needed, you can hire skates when you get there.

WINTER VEGETABLES



The hard frosts have eased a bit this weekend making it easier to harvest winter vegetables.
 It is generally acknowledged that frost improves the flavour of many vegetables, like parsnips, making them taste sweeter, but it is hard work digging and pulling  them out of the frozen ground.
