Winter 1962/63

Geoffrey won’t forget the winter of 1962/63.  He had never seen snow as high as a double-decker bus before.  It was so cold and all they wanted to do was keep warm.

On one occasion they were stranded on the moors and had to stay on the site with the builders in their accommodation block.  There was a near riot after three days of baked beans.
