Had a canadian over here for 12 months on an exchange, we were all sooking about how cold it was in winter, he showed us a photo of a building fire where he came from, totally involved on the inside and solid white on the outside where the water was freezing as it hit the outside of the buillding, be a tad on the cold side for my liking.

Really? I thought they were the ones that send our countries to war. Are you one of those who think it's really the multinationals? Originally Posted by Honorary Bloke

Nah. I was just referring to all the threads about What can I do? Do I need a permit? Why won't the council approve this? Can I subdivide my block? Originally Posted by Frank&Earnest

Here in the land of Oz, we have the best polys money can buy.
The fact remains, that 97% of all statistics are made up, yet 87% of the population think they are real.

I spent a winter in Canada, mostly Toronto, Edmonton and Vancouver Island. Totally cured me of the need to see snow again. If I remember correctly Trudeau was the PM and the politics looked the same as ours. We just had Hawke elected.
Wonderful people in Canada. Took a real liking to Molsen, Ice Hockey, Banff and the giant wooden penny at Sous Saint Marie,.
