12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS: Thick ice

Today we continue our Remember When countdown to Christmas.

There are now 11 days until the big day and each day until then, both here and online at portsmouth.co.uk, we shall bring you a picture from the past which captures the flavour of the season.
Call it a host of Christmases past...

Here we go back to Christmas 1962 and a group of lads walking on the frozen moat at Hilsea.
