Re: The truth about winter in Canada.

Re: The truth about winter in Canada.

Re: The truth about winter in Canada.

Not me. But Shirtback is bilingual so it was easier just to quote from french wikipedia, with proper accents and all, rather bothering to translate it.

Re: The truth about winter in Canada.

Oh, I see. Sorry. the reference was to a Peter Cook and Dudley Moore TV programme from, err, a long time ago.
