That would have been me three years ago. The absence of spring is one of the hardest things about living in Alberta.

Spring in NS sucks too. Dead grass, still freezing winds till May.. goes on seemngly forever till it heats up. Its the only time I loathe though so I get through it....

Don't know if that's reassuring or scary lol !

Indoors hopefully, so the tears don't freeze 😢😀

Depends how you view it..reassuring if somebody is worried about be able to fit back in again..scary that you might end up back at square 1 again.

Me i have moved back to Canada again and finding it much more difficult compared to when i moved back to the UK.

of course. They would get lost otherwise, in another bloody snowfall today.

It was hardly better in the GTA. I remember years ago, a dutch visitor brought us some daffodil bulbs as a gift. We planted them in the front garden and then the squirrels dug them up and hid them.

Weather today in Edmo: -18C with 'light snow' (up to 30 cm). So pleased to be home.

i can confirm its -18c but its not snowing..thankfully

Check the local weather radar.

dont need to i can look out of the window

Not sure what your point is here?..im looking out of the window..its not snowing..often with radar images what is shown doesn't always reach the ground.

The technical term for precipitating clouds whose output doesn't reach the ground is Virga. I've only seen that once in my life and that was over the south Atlantic Ocean viewed from Cape Town.

When it's -godknowswhat in Canada, that is immensely improbable.

We've been back in the UK after 8 years in OZ for 2 years and 3 months. Both myself (Brit) and hubby (Kiwi) are struggling, and I'm suffering badly with reverse culture shock.

We are now considering a move elsewhere, but are trying hard to settle back in as financially the UK is working really well for us. We just did a 3 week safari to Kenya which we'd never have been able to do from OZ. Since returning we have both felt quite a bit better about life in the UK. I think whilst you can suffer from reverse culture shock it's worth giving it a few years. We are certainly committed to seeing out this year before any rash decisions are made.

Our situation most likely stems from having been unable to find a house to buy. We are trapped in highly unsuitable rental accommodation and need to come up with "plan b" if nothing eventuates in this area this summer. Very wearing!
