British Expats - The Pass Inn and Pass Out

GD - for infor :

Weather

Daytime and nighttime temperatures can differ widely, because of Edmonton's dry air (there is little atmospheric moisture to slow temperature swings) and its proximity to the mountains.

In the summer, the weather is generally warm and humid, with daytime highs in the 20-30 degrees ( 70-90 Fahrenheit) range. Because Edmonton is so far north, it has early sunrises and very late sunsets in the summertime. It is also wise to wear insect repellent, since the pesky little insects seem to breed well in the various lakes around town.

Winter temperatures tend to be consistently brisk (that's polite for "cold"). Once snow comes, its here for the duration, until April. The city's Christmases are consistently white. It is wise to dress warmly, and to dress in layers if doing any outdoor sports. Waterproof winter boots, gloves, and a hat (what Canadians like to call a "toque")are a must.

An approximate guide to Celsius Temperatures is as follows:

We still need to obey...the site rules of no nastiness and let this be the hand of friendship to all who sail in her/him/it....

Oh buggar this mines a pint.....and the dollar is down for the first game of pool

OMG please pour me a large glass of Shiraz along with 12 bags of ready salted crisps , cannot handle all this negative news around me and seeing so many of friends in real bads moods about the forecast of doom and gloom. Does anyone feel the same or is it just me being paranoid. Need to get back to Canada asap for some positive feed. I feel so bad for them but help can I be to them?!:(:confused:
