At the moment I really like snow... I'm sat in front of fire with a couple of logs on it... dogs sat on my feet and I've got a can in my hand. Life is good.

A few years ago there were Husky races near here.

poor Greek.

ahh well I decided to stay in bed, instead of going to school. It doesn't look too bad TBH, all the other kids have just walked past..ooops. It started raining about 9, but now its snowing again. Dunno if I made the right decision.
Ahhh well, so we get to make snowmen instead!

yes its really that steep, i daren't go down it forwards or backwards in Summer, I have no idea how he gets down it in winter...apart from leaving a pile of airbags in the garage for him to land in

He once went to ride up it on my black SV just after he'd serviced the brakes, he forgot to give the lever a squeeze before he did, and he didn't have a brake to squeeze when he hit the drive half way up.....me and Melody ran like hell to catch it

that angle is <B=56.31degres, I dought its that steep...
we need photos to prove it..
