BexleyKev Oct 2020 2:59pm, 24 Oct 2020 774 posts	0 BexleyKev The last Christmas Snow that I remember was 1962. Might be looking back through rose tinted glasses but it started in the morning on Christmas Day and we spent all afternoon building snowmen and playing in the street. Then it never stopped. Even the floods afterwards were fun when you were a kid. Sitting on dads bike as he cycled through the water.
Rosehip Oct 2020 3:04pm, 24 Oct 2020 18,286 posts	0 Rosehip I can remember a snowy Christmas in the early 70s - and one in 82/83 ish - whether that was sonw on the day or still lying from earlier, I don't remember.
GeneHunt59 Oct 2020 3:14pm, 24 Oct 2020 1,380 posts	0 GeneHunt59 I was only 3 in 1962, & don't remember the snow that year. Reliably informed by my big brother that it started snowing here in our part of Essex on Boxing day. Remember white Christmas in 1970 and like Rosehip recall snow one year in the early 1980s, but think it fell in the lead up to Christmas. In 1995? it started snowing heavily around 6pm on Boxing day and settled. Not much otherwise I can remember.
