No, we've not had a snowstorm here in St John's for a month or so. Today has been a mix of ice pellets, freezing rain and now just rain. It's rather unpleasant frankly, I'd rather have snow.

which surely leads to rule 75: always keep an open mind about places you've never visited

(i had to put that because someone was slagging off the east coast in another thread earlier, and i bet he'd never even been there! :curse:

No offense, but Toronto isn't even close to the east coast.

Which should lead to rule #76: Canada's bigger than you think - you can't drive from the west coast to the east coast in a day.
