StarBaby Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 We've been having really bad snow in England this week. It started off fun, and I made a snowman and everything, but I've not been able to get to work yesterday or today...which would be ok...but Daddy just went to the shop and they have NO MILK, and apparently, neither does anywhere else in the whole town! The lorrys cant get here! What am I going to do with no milky *sigh* Silly snow. . . Link to comment
Baby Bethany Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 We get a few days of snow and the whole country grinds to a halt, it's winter that's what happens. God knows what would happen if it snowed for 6 weeks or something. I'm sure many people just see it as an excuse not to go to work lol. I have neighbours that work like two miles away, and they still haven't gone in. Still, at least we have the summer and another hose pipe ban to look forward to. Beth PS) If I was your daddy Starbaby and heard you being cheeky about getting no milk, I'd give you a couple of spoonfulls of castor oil. Link to comment
Sissy Tami Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Look on the birght side winter offers us AB/DL the opertunity to wear diapers under warm bulky clothing without detection. Summer is grand but the clothes that are worn are less forgiving for wearing diapers. Trust me I live in Arizona and I see plenty of hot summer wear the thought of wearing something extra out in public is not desireable at all. I have a solution for you milk problem in the future. Keep some formula around. Or some powdered milk. I know that Powdered milk is not as tasty as regular milk but you can add some chocolate milk to it to mask the taste and have a treat at the same time. Do you have some Hot chocolate around that sounds yummy in the middle of a snow storm! Stay warm and dry, well ok warm but not nessisarily dry! Tami Link to comment

I know it wont taste the same. . .but maybe? Link to comment
Baby Bethany Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Is is worth trying some baby milk? I know it wont taste the same. . .but maybe? Do you mean the powded baby formula? That's pretty horrible to be honest, it doesn't really taste like milk. Give it a go, you may think it's okay. Maybe get a very small pack though LOL. Beth Link to comment
StarBaby Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 Well, in that case I'm going to pop to the shop underneath and maybe but a couple of things. You can get ready mixed baby milk cant you? Is that the same as powdered, but ready made? Link to comment
BabyChris121675 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I have heard about England getting hit with snow, and I have heard it's a once-in-a-lifetime thing. It's bad. I've had my battle with snow this winter, and lost hours at work. At least here, in the US, the country doesn't grind to a halt cause of snow. However, it does make for some interesting conversations when things are cleared out. lol. I'd rather have the Arizona weather than the snow. I hope you can get some milk.

StarBaby Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 I got some! Had to queue for 15minutes, but I got it! Yeah...I wanted to get to work, but the buses weren't running and my car was stuck Link to comment

Dubious Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 whiny english ppl in some countries we get 2 meter snow and dont complain (well some do ofc..) 2 weeks ago we got 40 cm snow overnight, but before i woke up the roads had be plowed so u could almost drive on summer tires (on big roads ofc, not the small ones) Link to comment
Bettypooh Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 I've been in upstate NY when the snow drifts beside the road were so high you couldn't see the tops of 2 story houses 30 feet away from the car, and the usual 4 lanes on one side of the highway were down to 1, with 1 1/2 in places. You couldn't even see any road signs. Luckily I was with 'native' friends who knew how to drive in the mess and didn't need signs to know where they were When I was 5 I saw 3 feet of snow in my backyard in Colorado and of course Mom wouldn't let me near it for fear I'd be killed underneath it I did get to play on the hill in front where it hadn't piled up so thick But I like it best where I am now. It snows a few inches omce or twice a year, looks pretty for a day or two, then melts away When the forecaster mentions the "S" word, like lemmings everybody rushes to the stores and buys all the bread and milk, even if they're only predicting a half inch at best, and even if they just stocked up on groceries the day before. It's inherent in being a True Southerner and I think the local bakeries and dairies are paying the forecasters off to increase profits What I like best is seeing a Northerner move down here and proudly park his mega-buck hot-rodded snowmobile in the garage, right in front with the door open for all to see, just to impress the neighbors. After a few days of having everyone that passes point and laugh they finally ask and find out that there's never been enough snow within a hundred miles of here to go snowmobiling!

TheMagicDragon Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 I love snow. I live in the northeast - the land of Nor'easter's. I plow and shovel and salt snow for a winter living and since I am sole proprietor I enjoy what I do so work is play. Snow equals money, at least for my business. The best thing, for me, is that I can wear diapers plowing snow and nobody can tell, since its hidden under all those layers lol. Only thing is, If I make snow angels I get wet from melting snow. cheers, Glenndl Link to comment
phogendpf Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Ya I hate the snow too. Chicago gets pretty horrible winters. Im soooo happy I moved to San Diego. Its Sunny and Clear and 70-75 everyday year round. I havent seen snow in over a year and im much happier. Its nice because I can go to the beach and catch those waves year round. I watch the weather all the time and it seems like the whole country is blanketed in snow right now except for socal. I love livin here. The only problem is that it seems like all the babygirls out there live in snow stricken areas which are far from me Link to comment

Hey becareful what you say about your neighbors they might be diaper lovers/adult babies on this site and realize who you are And i do want to say i totaly agree with you about the snow people use the bad weather as an excuse not to do things they dont wanna do but if it were something else they would be more than happy to get out in it Link to comment
Marcus23 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Snow is awesome. living in Michigan is great for me and I could never live anywhere with no snow Link to comment
Yvhuce Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Snow is evil! EEEVVVIIILLLL! So is weather colder than 70F. I hate winter. It feels like the very air is trying to suck the life out of me... I'd much rather have a nice, warm spring/summer all year round. Of course, it doesn't really help that I work outside all day, so there's more of a reason not to like it. Sure, it's fun if you can go play in it and then come back inside and warm back up when you get cold... But when you have to fight it all day, it's really just bad weather. Also, what're "lorrys"?

crys_138 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 I miss the snow. There needs to be more of it. Link to comment
wetvinyl Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Snow... meh, I can live with snow. This is Boston-- it's SUPPOSTED to snow, why bitch about it? Besides, I moved here from Ft Lauderdale. (20 years ago.) But what I'm sick of is, every damn morning it's single digits, for a month now. It hasn't been above 25 degrees ONCE since late December. That's definitely NOT Boston! Maybe a week of it, but not a month and a half... I'd be glad to see some snow-- cuz that means it's warmed up some! (We've got about a foot and a half so far.) Mostly what I hate about winter isn't the weather, it's the long dark nights.... the short daylight hours. Glad to see that it's getting a little light when I wake up in the morning, and after I get out of work... Spring is coming!!! wv Link to comment
jmcnappy Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 A "lorry' is an english word for 'truck'.....like 'nappy' is a diaper...don't know where they learned all these weird words though...sheesh... stick to english qwack young man we are speaking queens english.its you americans how have it wrong...

Andy Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 I remember lorry been taught back in my school days but then yankees tend to believe that they have invented football and simply gave the real football another name. Sometimes I really wonder how they made it to the moon Link to comment
StarBaby Posted February 7, 2009 Author Share Posted February 7, 2009 I'd probably really love the snow if I could just play in it all day! But trying to get to work and stuff is a bit of a shit to be honest! And yeah! How can the English be speaking English incorrectly Link to comment
spoonchicken Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Still, at least we have the summer and another hose pipe ban to look forward to. What is a hose pipe, and why are they banned? Link to comment

A hose pipe is one of those long rubber things that you put on your tap, to get water to other places? lol And apparently they are a waste of water? Link to comment
beallucanb Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Snow is wonderfoul if all you have to do is look at it, if I never saw snow again I wouldn't miss it, some day I going to get out of this dam snow belt and off this dam mountian. Link to comment
I M Soaked Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 A hose pipe is a garden hose, in American English. I take it that British summers are very dry. Link to comment
