Sweden this morning

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Chavy Leicester had snow too!

Although it's all gone now, and we're left with wan*y builders on top of buildings, throwing snowballs......How I wish it was legal to push the cnuts off :evil:

It's not fair, all we've got is cold. :( Mostly grey cold at that.

Having said that, I should be getting the garden ready for winter instead of wasting my hard-earned Friday afternoon off on t'internet :wink:

The Essex decenniel snowfall occurred last year. Much as I love snow I don't fancy a repeat.

Southerners are soooo worthless, they can't work out how to do anything after a light dusting of melting slush.

It's no wonder this country's going to the dogs. We should tow the south into the sea and assert our independence. Ideally during a weekend when I'm visiting home!

Well we had a blizzard last night. Many trees were blown down by the wind and the roads are all covered with frozen snow and ice. It's impossible to drive faster than 40 km/h. The wind also destroyed my gate and broke my favourite, 20 year old juniper. :cry: Oh and the whole village had no electricity for the whole night - which in my case means no water (electric pump), no light, and no heating (electric ventilator). So I slept in the pitch dark room with 10 degrees Celsius temperature. ;D Thank God I had 5 cats to give me some warmth under the duvet, 3 cm of candle to light my road to bed and 1 litre bottle of wine. Today as I drove to work I noticed that the local kindergarten's roof is on the playground beside it. :eek:

35 deg C, storm coming, big lightning, trees getting smashed, garden being obliterated ... the usual stuff.

Oh and that picture above is over Cape Town - it's mild down there by comparison to the Highveld lightning storms.

If that was round here we'd blame Jarvis :lol:

Actually that kind of sparkly stuff has been crashing around here off and on for the past two weeks and we're going to get some more of it tonight, by the looks of it this morning.

I'd much rather have SNOW!

From what I've been told snow is a lot like Afrikaners, and you guys probably have lots of those.

Nah, that's a rumour. More Afrikaners in the Cape, dude.
Although the guys who came round to my house yesterday to check out my garage, prior to knocking bits of it down, were regular Spanner heads from Germiston.
Cool car in the pool, btw :notworthy:

Finally some snow :)
Let me share a temperature-chart from 1999 when I lived in northern Sweden, in Luleå. :-)

Image

Yes, it's off the scale... -43C. The Fahrenheit and the Celsius scales cross eachother at -40 F/C, so that equals -45F.

:-)
