AS we get nearer to Christmas, many Christmas songs will be played across most public places.
One that we know will be featured as it stands the test of time, is White Christmas by Bing Crosby.
This has got us dreaming of a white Christmas so we delved into our archives to find some snowy images from across the years.
We even found one of a huge snowman called Ben!
(Gwent's tallest snowman in 1987 was in Ponthir and created by the Hall family (L-R Adrian, 15, Colin, 14, Jennifer, 16, Susan, nine, dad David and mum Jackie)
