It would be a long way to come back if it was missing an Allen key or a screw or 2!

You could buy an igloo in a box at IKEA ? Then take it home and have a fight trying to put it together !

No, almost useless for us at home, but we’re always happy to loan them out to friends travelling to cold places xx

I am pleased you can get some use out of your warm clothing (bargains ) you can’t get a lot of use from them in Australia !.
That’s what I call good forward thinking and I do like a bargain myself . xx

Sorry about technology not playing nice, Ron. I know, it’s a long way to drive a Volvo, but there’s something extra-special about driving it in Sweden. My dad had one in the 1970s and it had windscreen wipers on the headlights … which I now realise would be totally useless in snow, having scraped snow off quite a few windscreens now. They were definitely a novelty in Australia though.

The Swedes do a great range of things in tubes. There was something else near the creamed rice but I can’t remember what it was now. I’ll check next time we’re shopping. And then there are all the sandwich spreads in metal toothpaste-like tubes. Loads of different flavours – I currently have a caviar tube and a prawn tube to spread on bread and crackers.

Do you know what this is the third time I am going to write a load of twaddle some one is out to get me don’t I will through something at the screen too costly but the joker with bear hands will get frost bite I do remember as a young man what fun it was to play in the snow but as a Plumber not good to many frozen pipes as for the Volvo Judy you can buy one just down the road from you in Adelaide at a price in my days having to serve my country as a Soldier which I had to do I slept beside a young man from the north of Scotland who I could not understand told he could see the NORTHERN LIGHTS He did not go on leave because it took him to long to get home

Interesting way to package creamed rice!

Margaret, we did bring snow boots with us. The day before we came here 3 years ago, we went to the Boxing Day sales and bought just about all the really warm clothes we own and paid hardly anything for them … thermals, boots, gloves, scarves & Greg’s blue jacket. I often wonder now what we would have done if we hadn’t gone to that sale, those clothes have been fantastic for these trips

I suspect scraping the windsheild is something very new to you. Lots of this going on here every morning in winter , although not from us as we have a carport and we don’t get the frost on the car.
What are you wearing on your feet as you obviously didn’t take snow boots with you ? Enjoy the snow!!! X
