Yesterday morning on the Jamie and Louise Show on BBC Radio Wales, history blogger Phil Carradice spoke to Lisa Rogers about past winters in Wales, and in particular the great snows of 1947, 1962 and 1963.

Power cuts, frozen rivers and the joys of sledging on silage bags (pre health and safety) were also discussed.
