Missed two days because I was stuck in a Somerset village during the
Feb 1978 incident.. Still the best snowfall I have experienced while
not being 600m up in Norway...

I still remember how disappointed I was on waking up on the Sunday
morning to find that the forecast spread of the snow into the SE of
England had not in fact occurred.
