Here on the island (Vancouver Island) very little. In the town I live in perhaps a couple days a year, though this year we had quite a bit, even some in March.

Victoria can go without snow for winter, but there are not too many places in Canada which could say that, I am sure.

Do you get snow in Manchester?

Great!

Are you going to threaten GT with your presence while you are here?



Whistler is great, lots of aussies there though. (not a bad thing)

I was originally hoping to stop off at Vancouver for a few days, yes, but I really want to go all the way over to SF Bay if I can, so we'll see how much time I have. I'll need to plan things a little better.

We get snow in Manchester once every decade

The most beautiful thing I've seen here is actual snow on the beach. That was a few years back and quite amazing.

Bite your tongue! That's blasphemy!

Well... I guess it's better than the tar and seaweed that washes up on our beaches.

(from mp3 players to snowy beaches ???)

PS: Paul, the silence was better... Maybe I'll like the music better when doing laps at the veloway. --Getting fatter by the day, not looking forward to winter at all.

It seems MusicMatch and ITunes are the only software apps compatible with IPod's or does anyone know of any others?

@ ipod

I tunes is pretty sweet, the programmer came from soundjam.

@ dogs

don't go where the huskies go
don't eat yellow snow

@ german shephard
I bet he/she eats you out of house and home.
I had a German/English Shephard when I was young. I really miss her.

(I wish I lived in a house instead of an apartment.)

I finally went and fiddled with at a store near me.
Least I have to say is that it was quite nifty.
A RCA cable and an input plug to your stereo deck and you're set.

Good prices

Thanks for the links.

I think buying from the UK will always be more expensive :(

Tell me about it!

Benefits of living on an island.
With Exchange rates and all.
What can you do?

I just found a cool song to add to my IPod.

Santana feat. Michelle Branch - Game of love.

What a great song.

Do you have a 1000 songs yet?

Nope I get an "invalid referer" message trying to check the shipping status and no-one at apple nor the courier company have replied regarding the error.

Hmmm, what a bummer.

Hopefully they will fix that!

They can leave it broken if they want as long as they deliver :)

I just called Apple, they said they are still waiting for my IPod to arrive from Luxemburg
