I do remember the winter of 62/3 . Went sliding around on Wisley lake near Weybridge . Love the Morris minor and other scenes . Cars really looked like cars ! and there were fewer of them . We had a Zodiac or a Rover at that time .

Not a village but Guildford. The opening scene is looking toward the lower High Street and the town bridge from The Mount.

Winter 62/63was my first year as PC in Hull City Police. I stood in a deep doorway awaiting a visit by my sergeant at 1.00am and the snow started, 2" flakes lazily falling, in 30 mins it was over a foot (30cm). I walked in to the police box for my break and after 45 mins it was about 2 feet deep. I had to walk my bike the 3.5 miles home at 6.00am. It took me almost 1.5 hours. I have many memories of that winter!

I don't care too much for the way things have gone, I don't live in the past either, But I know which time was the best.Cracking film of the big freeze of 63. I was a 6 year old, and it was great fun, for the most part.

This is Guildford, Surrey.

How I remember the winter of 1962 into 1963. I broke my leg and through the eyes of a six year old I thought it would never mend. Thankfully it did and within a while I was able to go down a favourite playground slide again. For all the years since I've only just remembered it again.

I remember that winter well, even though I was only just under 5. We lived outside London, in NE Surrey, and I was a bridesmaid for my sister who got married in the snow (in a church, of course) in the February - blooming freezing it was, especially when we had to stand outside for the photos! We lived on quite a steep road, but hardly anyone had a car then, especially as we had a station at the bottom of the road and London was only 20 minutes on the train. Went sledging at Banstead Downs. No central heating in most of the houses where we lived either!

Those poor people, they might have slipped on the ice and hurt themselves- who would they have sued? It must also be fake snow as those old fashioned cars seem to have no problem driving up hills in it? Or perhaps people just got on with their lives and did not try to blame someone else?

@andyelliott8027 2 года назад

Narrow tyres which is what you need in snow and very little power, that old van at 0.29 only had a 30 horsepower engine compared to, for instance a Ford Focus Estate today which (according to the model) has anything from 83 - 276 hp, so it didn't spin the wheels easily with that gentle power.

@@andyelliott8027 I know all about the old Ford / Fordson van, brother had a "Woody" version of the 10 cwt coach built by a company in Luton. Our chemistry teacher had a "Pop" and made it 20 miles in to school regardless of how much snow there was. I wonder how the electric cars will fare with their unusual torque curves?

@rogersmith8339 2 года назад

I should have added that my current Shogun has stupidly wide, low profile tyres and is pretty rubbish off road (can't afford a proper Landy!).

@andyelliott8027 2 года назад

@@rogersmith8339 Also you can't tow an electric car because the electric motors can't disconnect from the wheels apparently, so towing can wreck them. They have to be put on a low loader. Pesonally I drive a Subaru Impreza, all-wheel drive you see so less chance of becoming stuck.

@matthewvwuk Год назад

@@andyelliott8027 Quite correct. A good old 30 bhp sidevalve engine that old van had back then as well. No heater in the van either so you just 'grinned & bore it' in the winter. Best of British eh?
