It`s nice here too Steve, it went from this morning -30°C to only minus -10°C which is a real blessing. Just in time for Christmas holidays, it`s nice to be outside now that we don`t freeze our butts off.

Gerry - That guy must of hit the curb really hard to do that. Thats skill right there haha.

I'm staying up here for the holiday, my family and in-laws all came up here for Christmas. I got a week off at the end of January, the only bonus of shift work, so me and the girlfriend will probably be heading down south for that.
