  1. same goes for me I'll never learn. glad I know how to pronounce "Dún Laoghaire" and "Taoiseach" by now... and an Irish friend who I met in Munich taught me how to say "Baile Átha Cliath" (Dublin) the right way. That's all I can say correct
  2. just random, had a snow storm hitting us here since yesterday morning. it snowed all day and all through the night. the whole county I live in (North-Rhine Westfalia, west area of Germany) has drowned in chaos. the highways are still stuck on more than 200km as cars and trucks can't drive on in that snow and ice. standstill all over. I live out in the countryside and we got some 45 cm (~18 inches) of fresh snow. no chance I can leave the house today, roads are closed all around here. madness.

    Wow, we grind to a halt the moment a snowflake hits the ground. Snowed here yesterday but didn't stick because the ground was wet. Now that'sa dry and primed for sticking - the sun comes out.
  4. It seems there are not as much snow here as there was a few weeks ago. I'm on holiday in a few hours (at 1 p.m, after a law exam ), and hopefully I'll be able to do the Toulouse-Lyon route without any problem.

  6. I have a horrible feeling that might be how she pronounces it, despite being Really Wrong.

    That kind of happened here a few days ago. It started snowing yesterday, it stuck to the ground and has now frozen over. Apparently snow all week. Looks like it'll be a white christmas.

    Hate it when the snow freezes over, makes the pavements near impossible to walk on!

    And yeah, bookies have a White Xmas as an absolute certainty.
  12. My 3000th Post!!!

    Thanks to everyone here for helping me kill so much time, get away from the real world, immerse myself in U2...there are so many great friends here, and it's been nothing but a good time so far!

    Thanks again guys, didn't wanna open my own topic just for this, but wanted to give a little shout out. Someday I'll hit that 20,000 mark... Ha, stay classy, U2Starters!
