Ok Butch,

I have been a bit busy recently and not checked into the site. To save me some time searching - what car classes as a gay car?

Talking about Scousers - maybe they should set up a separate area for Brits that are in Liverpool so they can keep in touch as well:rofl:

Honda Element, Subura Outback, VW New Beetle, the Ferrari with the plastic bubble over the engine.

I have been a good boy this year - I have washed the windows and lights on my car every week and sometimes twice a week. I didnt bother washing the car itself but have got to quite like the light brown road dirt colour - my car looks like everyone elses - you cant even see the rust patches at the bottom of the car doors anymore.:D

I'm hoping that, if we get sustained warm weather, I might be able to wash the cars and see out of the windows.

Yes. Fortunately my rippling hungness offsets that.

Here it is, no flower though because it's too cold.

WOW - sure makes me glad I picked this area. The lower mainland of B.C. will still be wet and grey for a while and the north will still be white for a while - but I guess Kamloops is one of the warmest places in Canada. I find Spring amazing here - March starts of like early February in the UK and ends like late April - a short spring long summer.

"Sping" as you put it, generally arrives in Newfoundland about June. Before that we have several more weeks of snow followed by an indeterminate amount of rain, drizzle and fog. Still, it's a wet kind of cold.:(

You could go totally cheesy and use a plastic flower until the real ones get a chance to grow. :rofl::rofl:

I've seen a few out here with plastic flowers. ;)

I have to find one that's totally ridiculous though, an orchid or an aspidistra or something, a single plastic daisy just isn't silly enough.

Right, time to jump into it, I have to stop on the way home for some Grolsch or Corona or similar.

Thats good - cleared it up for me - I was a little worried that it might turn out to be the same I drive around - I have been told that mine is a sports Mom car (Dodge Caravan). I dont need to worry about a flower on the dash board - I could grow an entire garden in the trunk.
