Don't make me show you our stuff !

Our snow is pitiful And where I live, there's none at all!

Aye c'mon Ken - lets see some real snow - not the pish I woke up to.

Cheers,

TSChilly.

Hmmm. So where's the pikturs then?

Snow is quite common in some parts of Britain like Yorkshire & Scotland but this is usually nothing compared with what I've seen of Canada. The last time we had any of what you could call snow in my part of the country was in the winter of 1962/63. I'd just started my new job at Gatwick which meant commuting every day. I remember it started snowing on Boxing Day (Dec 26th) & didn't thaw until April. The drifts on either side of the roads were higher than a double-decker bus in some places & even the sea froze over.

This is what I call snow.

Not bad drifts there Doug....

OK, let me go outside and get a shot for you of ours.....

Alrighty then, here is our place today, and looking down the street to the north..........

Not what you expected from us.....although in fairness, as you maybe saw from my post last weekend, we've had fog for a week and there is still a lot of lingering low overcast...........


I know,...I KNOW ! you're all saying ....." what the hell is all that about ?"

The only time I've seen anything like that was in the previous bad winter of 1950-51. I opened the front door to walk to school & that was what I was confronted with (Less bottles of course. ).

Ken....
I am curious to know what is holding half of your house up...?
...apart from the drain-pipes...?

LOL...!

Paul...never did trust drain-pipes... ...!
LOL...!

I still have nightmares about it

The snow or being 3 feet tall?

One sec Paul..........going out into the blizzard for a moment........

Well, I wasn't exactly a midget even in them days. I don't remember ever seeing snow before, never mind a wall of it. I struggled to school waist-deep in the stuff & was worn out by the time I got there. It's a wonder I was ever seen again. Everything looks so much bigger when you're young.

...sometimes I feel I'm going to die with laughter... ... ... ...!
