Well I know a hunter. Last year there was no fat in the meat whatsoever. This year there is tons of fat in them. So he said to me that they are preparing themselves for a long winter. Makes sense.

It does make sense, except for the fact that last winter was hard too. ;)
Last winter was awesome, where I was anyway. I thought it was a good winter.
We had okay moments, but not enough that I'd call it a good winter.Quote:

I would feel sorry for you Mag, but I'm in Canada getting the full brunt of the cold crap, so no sorrow for you. ;)Quote:

Wow. We must have sent our cold to you. It's actually been okay here for the last few days. On Friday it was 5 degrees.Quote:

Very kind, Alty, thanks. Now if you could just send the cold somewhere else... All the whiteness does look quite festive though. Started seeing the little red-breasted robins hopping around the garden which is a very christmassy thing here in England.

Here red breasted robins are a sign of spring. We get giddy when they finally show up.
Shazzy, I love it. I wonder what the mean snowman wants? The hat? The carrot? His snow balls? Um what? ;)
Bit off topic, but here's my baby all grown up:

Graduation day was lovely, the traffic and weather less so lol.
Still snowing here but not quite as cold phew.
Scotland has minus l5 C I hear, extreme icy weather conditions and lots of snow for all of England. Nothing much here in Ontario except a smattering on Sunday that disappeared quickly in the rain. More rain today and mild temps.
I feel for you over there. Know what its like to have those kind of weather conditions and having to drive around in it as well.
Safe driving !
Wonderful pic, what a proud time.

Great picture QLP. He looks like royalty. :)
Alty... help me! My Wedding Chapel is empty and I need my guests! :)

Hello everyone!
Weather is freezing at the moment,work was crazy plus exams.
Not to mention the 'war' but how is everything on the site now?
Hi Red!
I've missed you! Where have you been? Oh, I guess it was work and exams. ;)
I think things are going well here. A few people left, but that was to be expected. But all in all things are running okay now. Still a few glitches with the new skin, but they won't be changing their minds about that so I guess we just have to lump it.
How are you? Other than cold. ;)
Why yes that is a 5'8" snowman, almost taller than me :D
That is an adorable snowman Bear. Um... why is his head so small? Did you run out of snow? ;)
Thanks Alty, ill take that as a compliment from you experts of snow craft up there :)
Plenty of snow left but by the time I got round to making the head the snow just wouldn't stick togeather, it was all powder :(
So I had to do with what id managed to do and make the best of it :D
Well it's an uber cool snow guy. I like it, small head an all. :)
Our snow isn't sticky enough for snowmen yet. :(
Thanks :)Quote:

Ah well its aptly placed on the end of the driveway to watch people drive past in the morning :D
Hello bear. Love the snowman. Glad he can watch people drive by.
The roads seem to have ground to a halt here pretty much this morning and it's still snowing heavily. Glad I got most of my christmas shopping done as it looks like we're going nowhere for a while. Just hoping there is some let up before christmas as I want my family to be able to get home.
Hubby is pacing around on the phone trying to find out if work is going to become feasible today, not happening yet.
As I hold a newborn babe in my arms...
Very nice.
Same here, no chance I'm getting to work todayQuote:

Love that song J, thanks for reminding me of it :)

This girls voice makes my spine tingle.
Snow, what is snow?
The temp plummeted to 40 (F) today. Monday it was almost 70 (F).
We might see a light dusting of snow for the weekend. (Virginia Beach, Virginia). My sister lives in Alaska and she says it still snowing there from last winter!
However, my son did start on the Christmas outdoor lights yesterday.
It was 72F here last night, and around 82F during the day... urgh, summer has barely started.
Go Auzzies!
My nephew Sean (5) is an avid watcher of The Weather Channel.
Yesterday morning,they cut to a segment of snow falling in Chicago and Sean got so excited to see it actually snowing.
Any of you that want snow, I have plenty, I'll send you a whole yard worth of snow, front and back. ;)
It's chilly today. For all of you 72F people it would be freezing, but us it's just chilly at -9C or 15.8F.
I don't have enough snow yet, hmmm maybe I'm being greedy :o
Not that cold here but -4C, so almost as cold :)
-4 is spring Bear. ;)
Actually -9 is spring too.
We're really lucky right now, considering how cold it was when I started this thread. I'll take -9C over -30C any day.
I'll pack up my snow and send it your way Bear. Merry Christmas, go make a snow village. ;)
Awesome, ill keep an eye on the post :)Quote:

It just got above freezing here yay! But.. the forecast is for a brief melt with rain/sleet then a major freeze, plummeting temperatures, and a lot more snow. Gee, that lot will make the roads even more fun. Our local shop has run out of nearly everything, hope they get a few deliveries before the next big freeze or we will be living on rice and pasta soon. We hit -14 early yesterday morning so 1c feels positively pleasant. Bracing myself for the next drop. Cooking up big batches of carrot and lentil soup to keep us warm. :)
Yep the roads are going to be fun fun fun :DQuote:

Lucky for me I have a massive sainsburies just round the corner for me if I need anything so I don't have to brave the roads unless I have to.
Keep warm :)
