Proper snow in t’Midlands today

I saw. Lucky bastards. Poocho is dying to go and do commando rolls in a bit of snow. Especially if there is a bit that's lying on a lump of fox shit.
And its the on topic conversations that have gone on in here today that just show that it actually was the right decision to have all separate VMP threads.

I’m hoping for more in the morning to get me out of going back to work ..roads by me are all country lanes and pretty treacherous in the snow ..between the inevitable Covid absentees awaiting test results and now snow it’s gonna be a shite day back!

PS we are actually further north than you and it never snows.
Definitely not further north than you though!

I guess the Gulf Stream and the ocean help keep things more temperate for you?
Yeah completely. It’s why it’s both temperate and never stops pissing it down!
It's that total conundrum as to whether you bother to wear your waterproofs when you go out because you know that whatever you repell on the outside is going to be counteracted by the amount you sweat with the ridiculous heat on the inside. The northern hemisphere has really turned in to a massive pain in the arse of late
That said I spent Christmas in the west of Galway this year, just got back. It was gale force, freezing and torrential. The rain actually goes sideways there at this time of year!

Windsor is the most southernly city in Canada. Its line of latitude is just about 35km north of the Oregon/Cali border. Windsor gets a metric shit tonne of snow.

Catching up on the last few pages. Contacting CS to see if it's possible to swap this one for a map.
It's been the best day or so for a VMP thread since Dog Pic Day
When Nunavut became an official province i didnt learn about it. 8 years later i was working in a call center and I look up at the wall and there's a big map of the States and Provinces. And I see "NUNAVUT" and as a child who did very well in geography in school and was a big hockey fan i thought, "What is that?? I've never seen that before!" So off to Wikipedia I went!

So I should amend my request to ask for a current map

Wait. They're really doing 4 straight months of male 70s soul singers? Oof. This definitely makes my subscription lapsing easier to take.Isaac Hayes, Frederick Knight, And Leon Ware Albums Coming To VMP Classics

Also, of the 9 titles they just announced, I only really feel like one or them (John Prine) is truly needed in my, or any, record collection and I already own it. (I already own Room on Fire and Lord Quas on CD, but those feel like albums that belong on CD.) Again, this definitely makes my subscription lapsing easier to take.

Yeah, I feel like this 3 month span of Classics and Essentials is pretty underwhelming. The best, only truly great album in the bunch is John Prine, which was just reissued AAA 3 months ago.
