Sadly I'm old enough to remember winter '63; you know the one that
sends snow lovers to the bathroom urgently? Winter '63 was shyte
end of story; complete and utter shyte.

I'm not old enough to remember it, but I can remember 1981/2 spent in a
house with single glazing and no central heating. And I have friends
who remember not only 1963, but 1947 too (rationing, flooding and all),
who still love the thought of snow. Different people have different
preferences.

Besides, cold weather has its benefits in stopping certain diseases
getting out of hand. Personally I'd rather have some ice and snow than
have malaria re-established in this country, as may well be the case if
things get warmer and wetter.
