        @michaelegan86 @BBCBreaking 2) Your immune system isn't as good when you're over 75 than when you are younger. Consequently more illness.

        @Johnimus_Prime @BBCBreaking I still believe fuel poverty has a part to play, living in a damp and cold home is not conducive to good health

        @BBCBreaking Hardly surprising when the cost of utilities are so high. Don't seem to be dropping much do they - considering the cost of oil?
