Default The !962-3 Winter in Windsor

Somebody posted the following link in uk.local.surrey:

It's a fascinating read.


A very fascinating read indeed :-))

'twas me who posted the article. At the age of 3 in 1939 I moved to Kingston
on Thames near to Ham Common. Believe it or not I can remember the move :-))
However it was the business of being pushed across the Thames in my push
chair in the vacinity of the Sea Scout Hut between the 'Half Mile Tree' and
Turks Boat House which has played on my mind for yonks. Did it happen? Have
I been recalling a dream? Yes I am certain to the first question, and no to
the second. Any more clues anybody? The 1940's winter, not the 62/63 which I
also remember, though I was in Leicester at the time.
