So it was a cold night last night and pretty icy this morning so lets be careful getting about.
Icy pavements can be treacherous if you don’t know how to handle them, but now, German trauma surgeons have advised the public to walk like penguins to avoid slipping on pavements with freezing temperatures forecast nationwide in Germany over the next few days.
An advisory published on the website of the German Society of Orthopaedics and Trauma Surgery said that walking like the aquatic birds involves leaning the torso forward so that the centre of gravity is on the front leg.
Be good if you could get a pair of flippers and a dinner suit too! Take care.
