LAST week you carried a photograph of the River Wear in Durham City frozen over in the recent winter weather and stated elsewhere that the last time this happened was in 1979. Well, I have some photos of the Wear frozen over in December 1981 and if you look closely you will see someone actually walking over the ice.
