Surely you can't go wrong with the mighty mt granview?

I can't really say that I have seen any good movies lately, but maybe check this one out: http://youtu.be/qUl9pCZ6edw

Great stuff Snowjunky, looks like you got some pretty good conditions. The heli terrain looks awesome. Sometimes the snow will get down to sea level in the south island, but not often, most of the time only the upper parts of the mountains are snow covered. With no trees, yes you can get alot of wind affected and icy snow, and also visibility can make a much bigger impact than if you have tree lined slopes, however if you seek out the lee slopes you will find the goods after a blow. Mt Cook is the tallest mountain in NZ, at 3,754 meters, but most of the skifields are between 1200m

Sounds like a (deliberate) bad translation to me.

I bought some Smith IOs before our last trip - fogged up really bad on any bad weather days. In fact, one day i had a full layer of ice over the inside of the lens. Will be going back to Dragon personally, haven't had a problem with their entry level goggles previously. I hope you have better luck with your IOs Rucky Inu, but if you still have your old pair, take em just in case.

I preordered a PS4 a few weeks ago, and unfortunately I left it a bit late - might be February before I get mine. Note to self - next time preorder straight away

He meant to say, go Roosters.

Yeah - of Yotei, not the resort

well, a dusting on Yotei, none to actual resort level yet from what I have seen.

Actually, it sounds like a pretty mind numbing and boringly repetitive process to me, but I guess the overall process is interesting. I bet there are a bunch of graphic design graduates thinking they would be doing amazing and groundbreaking things, only to find themselves making raindrops into 3D. Definitely not the job for me.

I wonder if it had detonated, would it all have been blamed on the soviets, and would the US government have waged a nuclear war with the soviets, rather than admit that they stuffed up?

The wind has been very cold, at least it seems to have been to me, regardless of the max temp. We have had our heater back out after not using it for a month or so, and we are using our electric blankets again.

To be fair, Snowdude, if i read your forcast correctly, you are predicting that this winter might be colder and more snowy, it might get off to a late starts, or it might be warmer than usual. that is a pretty broad forecast which no doubt because of how open you have left it, you will claim to be 100% correct around march.

or the effects of abenomics?

so this is how they have done the siding, but you would prefer a single line in the middle of the 2 windows? Personally, I prefer the way they have already done it, and I think it will be less noticeable this way, as well as being stronger. However, I don't have to live there, you do. If this is something that will drive you crazy every time you see it, get it done the way you want now, rather than spend the next 20 years wishing you had.

Pork, cider and fennel pie.

Can we stop talking about lady gaga now? seriously not worth wasting another post on.

Although August has had above average rainfall in Perth, so I can see why you would think that it's been wetter based on the last month.
