I can remember the giant snowball fights we got into , even the teachers joined in! Then in the way home we'd take a heavy duty plastic bag and use it as a sledge on the local hills. I feel sorry for the poor molly coddled snowflakes today, they'll never know simple fun.

I was sent home from school because of the weather a couple of times (I lived ten minutes from school, so the weather wasn't an issue for me). A couple of times there was barely a dozen kids turn up after a blizzard. This would be mid-eighties, so it's hardly a new phenomenon.
