      I remember it well I walked a mile and a half to my Junior school in North London every day as everyone else did NO ONE went to school by car.
      It was bl**dy cold in short trousers.

      We have had snow here for just four days and the media here are refering to it as 'the big freeze' !!!!!!!!

      strongy, although I was well out of school by then (working in S. Africa) I went to Junior School in North London. Small world, isn't it? :)
