TheWeatherOutlook, one of the UK’s leading independent weather forecasters, has warned that colder weather will begin to bite this winter.  Colder winters may not be a result of global warming, but the one indisputable fact is that almost 37,000 people died during the last cold spell in 2008.The rise in what is bureaucratically termed “excess winter mortality” for England and Wales was the biggest for years and the highest total in a decade.  Last winter more than 90% of deaths were pensioners, who are among the least able to afford heat but the most vulnerable to cold.

So if you want to get your Nan or Gran practical  Christmas presents with more than just a touch of irony,  get her a Hot Polar Bear.Yes, just as the ice caps are melting and the bears drowning, this one at least can help your elderly relative through the winter.He’ll melt more than just your Gran’s icy tootsies. Stocking fillers (even wrinkly stocking fillers) don’t come much more cute, adorable and practical than this.  The bear has a heatable wheat sack in his belly. Just heat up the bag in the microwave and you can cuddle up with warm bear in bed.

Speaking of beds: if you’ve been looking for the ideal gifts for women that suit the Nan’s boudoir but have been stymied so far, try the Sound Asleep Pillow.Lying in bed and drifting off to sleep listening to a favourite radio programme is heaven – especially if you are nuzzling a hot polar bear. It’s not so much fun if you end up throttling yourself the headphone cable or get those ridiculous little ear bud phones stuck in your ears.This comfortable pillow has a speaker buried deep within its plumpy core and a jack that plugs into a radio (or an iPod or MP3 player if she’s ever heard of those things).The sound is inaudible to anyone except your sleeping granny with her head on the pillow and feet wrapped round the bear.   Nodding off has never been so wonderfully self-indulgent.
