    Haven't seen those since the early 70s. We made our own amusements then. We had long games of miner's strikes, teacher's strikes, dock strikes.... then we came home and watched a plastic stork dipping into a glass of water. Such fun.

    The long cold winter of '74! But '76 was a cracker, among my fondest memories.

    Honestly going back to late 70s onwards we never had that bad of weather for icicles until about 10 years ago. And it’s not that I didn’t notice because used to see it on tele and wonder why we didn’t get it. Different story out in the country I’m sure.

    Pickled onion also. Tudor were amazing crisps. Full of flavours you probably can’t use these days.
