Well dog, that just sounds like you need to experience the shear joy of shoveling sidewalks. I have a lovely one in front of my house that soon will be begging for attention. Don't bother thanking me now, glad to do it. ;D

Seeing as your so experienced and really love shovelling the white stuff (if there was any hint of sarcasm in your post :-\ -> I missed it :P ); maybe you could come over and do my drive, as it needs some more attention thanks to mother nature. ;) :lurking:

I was thinking since you like the cold weather and snow, you'd just be itching to come up here where we get more of both than you do. ;D

If it gets cold enough and deep enough you never know when I might show up. ;)

When it gets this deep I will bring my own shovel

Well, actually...for once I've got to admit that.
I am.
And a 'liar' too...:-[

Why?
Because:
1) The snow didn't reach the Northern part of my country (yet) :(
2) But where it did fall, it caused havoc, more than joy, to traffic. ::)

Resulting in:

A RECORDBREAKING Fridaynight TRAFFICJAM of some 800 km in total on Dutch roads; trains & buses out of service; thousands of stranded people; the army on patrol for rescue and comfort.
Situation wasn't solved still in the early Saturday morning!!!
(Hang in there people!)
And oh yeah: the day started with blizzards on the coastline, resulting in ships drifting; electricity cables snapped; trees and poles fallen and buildings damaged...

Talking about JOY...
Where did I get the nerve?:-[ ;)

Up North I had nightshift on the road and had no problem whatsoever8)
(whattayoumeansarcasm::))

But hey, I happen to like SNOW - why isn't it here yet?!>:(

;D ;D ;D

I was in the middle of it Slammer. Some hours delay when I was travelling by train. But a few drinks with some nice girls in a restaurant was the snow joy I had ;D

My daughter wasn't that lucky when she left Holland by boat thursday night. She was in very bad weather on the North Sea and got very seasick. But she arrived safe in the UK with 5 hours delay on friday afternoon.

Yup..I think you guys make the stuff up there with Mother Nature just to get attention.. *puppy* so we think you should be in charge of the Wilder's Snow Poll. :-*

Those two noteworthy Canukian Meteorologists Hans and Frans have been busily pumping up the Sno machines. It certainly is no job for 'girly men'!

I thought those two hosers Bob and Doug McKenzie were responsible for the Great White North Snow Machines, eh?

Let me call the Prime Minister :lurking: Somethings Wrong with our "Canadian Bacon" ... I think we've been invaded by Ed's Army. :(

What Prime Minister? Isn't he being primed for a Cont/Alt/Del! This candid shot of him after a recent 'Leaf's game has fried his bacon!

Our friends in the UK also have not been spared from the Great White North Snow Machines


Weather-hit motorists return home

Hundreds of people who were forced by blizzards and ice to spend the night in emergency shelters have returned home.
Around 1,000 motorists were stranded for hours in treacherous conditions on Bodmin Moor, Cornwall, where heavy snow forced traffic to grind to a halt. Devon and Cornwall Police said everyone had left the shelters by mid-morning and were likely to have reached home.

Your so right there Primulosa......at least fifteen flakes of snow fell on our roads and brought the Country to a standstill......it was horrific....one snowflake actually stuck to our front door and kept wifey and I trapped for at least a second and half.....touch and go whether or not we survived....It was only by a very brave effort on my part that I made it from the Kitchen to my Computer........after that scare we have stocked up with a loaf of bread, some milk and a hill of Beans, just in case any motorist run into a 6 flake deep drift outside our home...we'll be ready to save lives.......

I think anyone who gets stuck in four inches of snow should get the biggest smack up the side of their head and have their vehicle crushed....and any Media Reporter or Presenter who stands out in it to emphasise that it's snowing should get the same......
