Ah. Please enlighten me - was the notorious winter of 1947 1946/7 or 1947/8?

1947/48.

Sorry June, I think it was 1946-47!

In fact, the winter didn't get going until late January that year but
persisted well into March - a bit before my time of course!
I stand corrected, having just found a photograph taken in February
1947.
