Faces to names

Crabs...

Hello...

I would imagine that there are a lot of other places here in Vancouver where you can get crabs - probably cost you the price of a paper bag though...

SH.

 

Only need a small 'bag' for the crabs 'ee were thinking of (mind you in the name of the song - any bag will do!)

 

Geeez, Knut, you're a walkin', skatin' stereotype of a Norwegian!

 

Glad it wasn't 686, sad it wasn't 486!

 

Well Charmc, you're probably spot on there..... Only one week ago, since I broke this season's last pair of skies....

"I do not play hard to get, I play hard to want...".

 

I agree defenately not a Southwegian

 

How can you guys be into boating if everything is iced up all the time ? Sailing mean you slipped on the ice or what

I can never live there... be like in a freezer. It's 12 deg here in the nights now, sub-arctic weather

 

Norway is generally a pretty nice place, nice nature, and a lot of it (considering the no. of people here). I have collected some parts for an "ice sailer" (Garage project, don't tell wife, too low WAF on such projects). It's not winter all the time here you know. Summer now, 16 °C in water.
In winter's never a problem to find ice to the whisky....( I know sivilized men don't use ice, but they're not here...)

A fellow from some part of Africa was here in the winter, brought no camera, bought several "throw away " cameras... Photographed ice, his special intrest was "pinnacles" He never had thought it possible for water to freeze on the way down from the roofs.... Makes nice photos though. Btw, he thought it generally was a bit too cold also....

Capsizing a boat in the winter is a true "wake-up" experience.... If you swim too long in that water in the wintertime, even with a wet-suit, you'll normally does the peeing sitting down the couple of next days. Take some time to get all "extremities" back in working order again....

 

OK newbies and Frosty, I found the thread, post your pics here....

 

See what I mean, you guys are seriously misplaced. 16 °C is like winder here and it is not nice. All these clothes you have to wear - I'm surprized some of you have kids

Innocence my ***...

 

Huh? don't you mean kids by 9 mos after the end of each winter hibernation?

Fanie READ THE ENTIRE LINE : (up "to 1955" thereafter rapid degeneration to absolute - - - - - ) growing old disgracefully comes to mind but it is the motto of a bikie gang here (ULYSSES) and mallow youthatched by the original "me" pic in callow youth and such "innocence" that I even colourised black & white photos.....

 

I guess we all have our excuses

 

This thread was a really good idea. How about keeping the chatter to another thread and leaving this one to serve a very useful function ?

If you feel the need to make inane comments you could also delete your post after a couple of days.

It would be nice if some threads were left alone here particularly threads like this which are quite useful and community oriented . IMHO

 

What for?
Start another one NOT in the Dungeon, That is your right and freedom (I think)

Actually it may be a good idea, "active cruisers", "Active designers", "Active builders" etc., and so on in their own specialised region....?

 

I don't chatter on this thread Mike --its not me thats doing it, Its the others.

In any case I dont know what an inane comment is so it cant be me.
