A friend dates the decline of the British Empire from the arrival of indoor plumbing for the masses.

I was of approximately Rogerish age (9) during the winter of 1962 which was the coldest of the last century in England. Went to school in shorts every day, and played in the snow at weekends in shorts, whilst wearing mittens, hat and scarf, which is what AR's characters are wearing I think.
