Weather

As one gets older one feels the cold more keenly than when one's blood flowed a little better and so body warmth is harder to generate. Not withstanding that, I cannot recall a winter as consistently cold as the one we have just experienced. It is March (you may have noticed) and naturally we were expecting a little spring warmth but instead we have had arctic conditions! My house had lacked heating for several days due to a faulty boiler, leaving it like a fridge and warmth only possible if one had taken to a heavily covered bed sans hot water bottle!
Is it global warming? Has the natural order of the climate changed so as we can no longer predict what the seasons weather will bring? Or is it the natural cycle of the planet and would have come along irrespective of what humans have done to it? All I know is it is bloody cold out there and I do not like it! 
Yet more encouragement to move to a more temperate climate.
