This is the snow they have in Cardiff Wales U.K. right now. So I guess we shouldn't complain.
I bet the stores are all sold out of shovels.

Not having normal weather like this I doubt if they would have any snow shovels or maybe a few but long gone. This is where my cousin used to live.

sorry to here about all that bad weather up there. we in North Dakota get hit with just about every kind of weather, everyone has a survival kit in there car and snow shovel. we also have engine block heaters if you leave your car outside overnight you should plug them in.

Oh I hate people and traffic. But I hate the severe cold more. lol
yea we can't stay out side long in 20 below mostly if the wind is blowing and I remember my first winter here my kids had a great time the first 40 below day they would take a cup of hot coffee out side and throw it in the air it would never hit the ground it disappeared. Left my extension cord out to plug my car in that night , next morning started the car to go to work went to wind the extension cord up and put it away, no it was stiff, no winding just snap crackel pop. Yea it can be fun and it can be bad. we all make it in where we live

I have visited North Dakota in August and also Montana when we went out to Yellowstone. It is very beautiful country that I think everyone should see at least once.
I used to work out here in the oil fields hauling crude oil from the well sites to the train or pumping stations.
Lots of the truck drivers were from down south and they had no Idea how to ready there trucks for cold weather there were lots of trucks on the side of the road gelled up. sure felt sorry for them.
And just for ***** and giggles I would bring crude oil home and run it in my lawn mower, it liked it better than gas. even ran it in my old car a time or two. Lots of good crude oil here looks the same color as beer or lighter yellow not thick but very thin like gas and very explosive
yea once is enough for most people but I like it.. Out here is a good place to goose hunt or deer
yea most is thick but we have what is called sweet crude that black crude is sour crude and they say it tastes that way. never tried it
