Some snow.

Post by HerzAusGold »

Anyone out who need some SNOW ?
Here in Germany/Bavarian we have at least 150 cm (59 inches) of it!! Minimum - Everywhere.
If I look out from the ground floor I only see a wall of snow.
If you want I can send you some snow balls....
How many do you have?
And the answer is ... 42 !

No snow here... from a long time.
Here there is just a jail cold... outside the window, the wind lets hear its voice all day long (not to speak during the night).
Sardinia is called "The Winds' Island".
Here in my town, near the hill I live on top, there is a place called "Su mont'e s'argidda" (Clay's Mount): tradition tells that there borns the wind.

I let you imagine the situation here, my fingers are about to break off in pieces, just like plain ice.
Anyway, by the way, have fun!

You mean it's cold? How may degrees?
Here we have sometimes minus 15 to minus 20 degrees.
I know in sweden it's colder.
But now it's only snowing, snowing and snowing...
I know a small village with 500 cm (200 inches) snow - no lie!!
They have to step out - from the artic!
And the answer is ... 42 !

Five fucking meters of snow???!!! Oh my god!!! :-O
The whole town must be one single white plain then! :-o

Glad to live in a bit more northern province (Westphalia), where there's not much snow at the moment (only a few centimeters)...

Any recent photos from your home town online, HerzAusGold? :-o

It is!? I didn't know that... at least it isn't that cold here in the south-west part of Sweden. But it is most likely that cold up in the northern Sweden...
Here we have some snow, but not at all 5 metres. Not even half a meter...

Uh, I did a litteral translation of a sardinian idiomatic! The above was meant for "Here it's cold just like in prison". The meter is floating around zero - I know it's not too cold, but we aren't accustomed, you should know where Sardinia actually is. I'm planning to relocate to Africa if spring's weather doesn't come soon...

Five meters of snow... fascinating... I know it's really a bad situation down there, but it's 10 years that the maximum here is just some "pixels" :(
Anyway, by the way, have fun!

Wow... 500 centimeter... :shock: Oh my god...Here in Belgium it's not much at all, like 5 centimeter I think.
And then Belgium is next to Germany, and there is such difference!
But maybe somewhere in Belgium there is snow, at least not where I live...

Some snow body guards we build.
For people with less snow.

Vote which is the best?

Nice! Thank you!

I like a lot the Snow Body Guard with the umbrella, could you please put it in a box and send it to me? I think you'll need a very fast courier though :wink:

:D

Yes, it's possible, but this weekend it's rains and the snow is like ice.
And nobody have really interests to do it.
I write here, if last snow is gone (in my town).
