Ice Ice Baby

Now I know that we are all probably sick and tired of the snow and the cold weather and the disruption to our everyday lives that this causes, but today was a new benchmark.

I arrived at Calls Wharf this morning to find the River Aire frozen solid from bank to bank. The ice started at Leeds Bridge and went all the way down to the Millennium footbridge.

I've never known this before and it is a quite impressive and beautiful site. Was I tempted to get my ice skates out? No! It was nice to behold for five minutes or so, but then I retreated to the warmth of Calls Wharf for a coffee!
