As an ex-pat I'll miss all of those treats apart from the pj's. PJ's awful things that get all twisted and knotted up, only ever wore em once and that was in hospital, an eventually I only wore the top part.

Don't know if I dare wave the Cross of St George around here at the moment. Might give it a go when me collar bone is fully healed, just for the h**l of it.

Trouble is we do not have enough snow and therefor do not have the equipment to move it apart from salting the road, so when we do have a few ins of the stuff it throws us into confusion

Self-explanatory, really. He just tells that the parts come from an electric bike conversion kit, and gives a short presentation about where various components (e.g. battery) are. A funny detail: the tire is covered with chicken wire for better grip on ice.

The very latest in Snowmen.

A couple of lights just inside the snow is all you need.


And some military snow vehicles in China.
