Winter Warmers from Iceland.Found this on the BBC's website:
"People in Iceland - a country currently in desperate economic trouble - have shipped jumpers and blankets to pensioners in England this week, to keep them warm in the winter.
A container of woolies arrived in the north-east of England after an appeal on an Icelandic radio station. They were handed to local charities in Hull on Thursday.
The campaign started after two Icelanders living in Manchester wrote to the programme, saying they were appalled by the numbers of elderly people dying from cold-related illnesses in England."
The mind truly boggles!

Yes, of course it's "sweet" of them, and it's no doubt appreciated, but my beef is that it should not be needed.
What the hell are we, a Third World Country now?
