It is still cold in the park, as by the time I get home the wind is playing over the (melting!) snowbanks and it's still a little chilly....but...what am I going to do about these unpleasant white legs...that it might be possible to bring out soon.."?

You still have snowbanks?

Hasn't everyone got white legs?

Back in England, going to Greece twice a year, there was no time in the year that I couldn't see my white bits. I'm all white now.

Don't you live in BC? This is the time of year when BCers are crowing on about their daffodils. Well f--- them and their daffodils, real Canadians live in a land where winter is white and spring is brown and summer consists of the sounds of construction. Yes a land where you get freezer burn when you touch a steering wheel and the only effect of taking your car through the car wash is to make the mud more shiny. CANADA.

(And would you happen to know of a realtor in Langley?)
