Don't blame you, are you sure it wasn't the previous owner who stole them.... seems too much of a coincidence to me.

It's going to be brass monkeys. I just hope that my furnace lasts until the thaw next May - it's scheduled for replacement next summer... :(

Nah, checked into that one. One of them is RCMP so it wouldn't do their career much good if it was found out they did do it. Apparently someone up the road got their's stolen too.

Doesn't surprise me, my girlfriend was saying that we're having January weather for Saskatoon in November already... at least the lowest temperature I've noticed so far (without wind-chill) was only -25C.

There was something on the news about cold air coming down from the Arctic, I guess that explains it.

Well surely it goes that pregnant also means fat. After 6 months anyway.

The locals here are saying the same thing, this is January weather.
