Thanks George.
Most interesting.
One of those weird and wonderful pastimes.
That's where the term 'anoraks' has come from.

A similar study could be done on Dartmoor.
Seeing how long snow patches survive after a given winter.
There's something for Will to do.

I think it was P.C. Spink who did a report on Scottish snow survivals every
year for many years. His reports were published in "Weather".

I read somewhere that in the climate of the mid-20th century, glaciers could
have existed on mountains over 5000 ft high in Scotland, had there been any
that high.
