It`s funny I was watching the guy from across, dig his son`s car out of the snow, and, get him going. That was me, a few years ago. It`s amazing, how much pandemonium a bit of snow can cause.

I Agree we struggle here in the uk when a few flakes fall Laugh Out Loud Wink

No snow here as yet, but minus 10 this morning, and Saturday morning took me 20 minutes to get in the damn car, doors frozen shut, grrrrr.

we need an ice age to stop all the greed and consumerism in this world, it would put us humans right back in our place, like we was when we was apes/monkeys Big Grin the biggest mistake nature ever made was allowing the evolution of monkeys Nod Yes

Went shopping this morning. Put my hand on a metal post to steady myself. My glove stayed there, stuck to the ice Roll Eyes I expected torvill & dean to come past, at any time.

I feel sorry for you guys, here in LA, Is not too bad just 60degrese and about 2in of rain over the past few days, time for coffee, chocolate or some champurrado. cheers

im.out.of.hear - 2010-12-20 16:50

You are lucky hugo,in britain this is the coldest winter england has ever seen since records began over 100 years ago,the worst thing is,the gas and electric companies have just put there prices up,Alot !! so not everyone can afford to keep warm,and there is people dying of flu,and there is also swine flu aswell,17 people have died up to now in the past month or 2..
i think this is the beggining of the real global warning,well i dont think its a warning anymore,its reality !!

DAVE, if the icicle i see at the back of my house fell on your head...well let's say it would atleast leave you severely wounded Big Grin Wink
