That was *the best* cold spell I can remember. I was living in Caterham
(Surrey) at the time, and that Monday when the temperature didn't get
above -9c all day, even in the sunshine, was brilliant. I can remember
cleaning ice off the *inside* of the car windscreen at midday! Of
course, by the next day cars were unusable as the snow arrived in vast
quantities.



I believe you are thinking of 1987 rather than 1982.


I know - I realised that nanoseconds after pressing "send".
