Welcome to PC-Review. We hope you enjoy your stay here.

In response to your question "What is a muck by the way?". It's just a shorter more affectionate version of Muckshifter (Muckshifter is one of the moderaters of the forums), as most of us here are lazy typists, and cant be bothered to type members full names when replying to their posts!

Hi themenace. How long have you lived in Canada? Don't you find it rather cold after living in Antigua? You don't really have to answer, I just like to know why people do things.

hhmmm ... now that i am readin over i kinda didnt answer your question huh ... i moved up here december 29th 2004 and yes, it wasnt jus cold ... it was beyond ... my worst experience was when it was -35C ... i mean i left Antigua which is on average 27C to go to -35C ... more than opposite ... i was livin litterally 2 mins away from the bus station, maybe less and my face was frozen before i got to the bus ... it was actually burnin cuz it was so cold ... that is some crazy cold ... but its really warmin up now ... but then canada is a very big land mass ... they dont have tropical breezes that can cool u down if ur how so summer is goiin to be a pain ...
