We certainly did have more snow back in the 70s...........us kids on the road once got together to push a huge snowball round and round the block.
It was so big that there was still some left in early May !!

I remember the beautiful frost pattens inside the windows in the mornings and icicles..........I can't remember the last time I saw an icicle that was worth investigation........lol

Yes, I'm sure we used to. Remember when frosts lasted for days at a time. The river freezing over & going skidding on it.

I wonder if this winter will be one of those? Coldest start to a winter for a number of years. Even here in darkest Essex.
