At least I can recall the epic winter of 62/63. I had just passed my driving test and it was harrowing. The snow ploughs were out all day everyday and being no where else to put the snow it was banked up either side of the roads and you were literally driving through tunnels. Road signs were buried in drifts of snow and trees were falling because of the sheer weight of snow on the branches. The frozen snow and ice on the trees gave them all an appearance of giant chandeliers under the street lamps. I could go on. but I would love you all to witness such a sight one day.it was truly magical.
