Indeed we put the carb heat to cold at about 50', instead of leaving it hot for the landing, sorry if I gave the impression that we left it cold for the entire descent.

A recent AAIB report

http://www.dft.gov.uk/stellent/group...ty_028745.hcsp

referred to the C152 Information Manual stating that the procedure was to leave carb heat on until landing, this differs from the advice in the relevant AIC and Safety Sense leaflet. I am away from a copy of the C152 POH to check this.
