Winter photos

Some things just can't be placed elsewhere. Have you been speeding and got fined? Or spotted a nice new Volvo on the web somewhere? All non-480 messages can be posted in this part of the board.

Winter photos

Post by bigdickbuster » Sun Jan 10, 2010 6:24 pm

Hello!

I just watched TV and noticed that all Europe (except Bulgaria and Italy) is covered with snow blanket.

Messages from the world are frightening :eek:

I've just wonder is it magic of TV, or is it true ;)

Let each member of the Forum will make photo of his neighborhood. 480 on the photo is unnecessary :D

It will be some archive!

Cheers!

Would love to but I cant post pics yet.

SG202696 which can be accessed thru my flickr link in my 'hello' thread would be perfect. Any chance someone could post it here for me? Thanks

Lol no mate, it's just because the train workers seem to be to lazy to remove the snow from the middle part :lol: today they decided to do so and blocked my car parking spot. Had to shovel it free... :angry:

This was my home the last day of the year, its still the same and a bit more :) Nice winter feel, I love this much snow.
It's been year since we last got this much. In 2002 there was about the same amount - I was serving my time in the army that winter. It was a lot of work to mess around in that snow with my 8kg sniperrifel, but still a lot of fun.
But here are some pics.
