After having just seen Gavin's excellent video of winter 1946-47 - it seems aboslutely remarkable that 1947 and 1963 are just 16 years apart. You would think 1947 is a once in a liftime event, but to get 1963 as well so soon after is so strange
And (to a lesser extent) 1979 just 16 years from 1963
Here we are in 2013-14 just trying to get 3 or so days of cold weather with the Atlantic train going on and on - it just seems so pathetic!
