(courting at that time), but a re-run would go down like a lead balloon
with me. I'm fed up with having to watch I don't slip, or that the cars
don't, or having to leave the boiler on at night to stop freezing in one
of
the feed pipes. 9 days of frost and snow on the ground is enough for me
now.


Sounds like we're more or less the same age Mike - I started work in July 62
instead of going to university. However, I still have a hankering for the
really cold weather, even after the clang I got on the back of my head
almost a fortnight ago - still feels a bit sore. Perhaps I ought to get a
crash helmet to wear when there's icy weather?

At least with the 62-3 winter it stayed freezing most of the time and so
wasn't so slippy as it is these days with all the thawing and refreezing.
