Chilling out

Loch Chon in the Trossachs became a Scottish winter wonderland, as a band of snow moved across the UK yesterday. In the Yorkshire Dales National Park, Isobella Bellamy, above, had fun sledging near Newby Head Farm, but elsewhere the extreme weather brought serious difficulties. Homes were evacuated and roads blocked in north Devon after widespread flooding caused by heavy rain. People were also forced to flee homes in Kentisbury, near Barnstaple, and other properties have been flooded in Combe Martin on nearby Exmoor, Devon and Cornwall Police said.
