I thought that emigrating to the colonies would be
easy!
I'm getting there, but there are plenty of little
issues that i'm having
to adapt to,
like driving on the wrong side of the road for
instance.
Back in Wales, we don't have the same problems.
smaller bugs, less of them, min temp of -5C for a
couple of hours in mid
january
everything just has to be waterproof.
Some might say sheep proof a well, but I'll try and
keep my personal
life out of this discussion

I'm Welsh.... I moved to Canada last august
which explains the steep learning curve and the silly
name

Forgot to send to the list again!
When I got here, i was advised to use winter
screenwash because of the
cold, but it never occurred to me that the winter
stuff would be crap in
summer.
you live and learn........ As I said earlier, in wales
we don't have
insects the size of small birds. So having to dissolve
large lumps of
insect carcass spread across the windscreen is not
really as much of an
issue.......
anyway, we digress a little bit!
