		<description>Are you sure they are foreigners? I thought all the foreigners in the world were on the ferry in Sydney yesterday?</description>

		<description>Grandad,

I think they might have good size one available at Killington ski resort, I&#039;ll let you know.

Yeah, I guess an underground railroad might be a bit unusual in Ireland considering it&#039;s an American phrase pertaining to the vast network of people who helped fugitive slaves escape to the North and to Canada during the 19th century. Still, you never know.</description>

		<description>Kirk M - If you have contacts in the SnoCat area, it would be handy.  I need something family sized preferably with less than 500,000 miles on the clock?

An underground mountain railway?  It would be unusual?

JD - I don&#039;t know what you&#039;re on about.  Global warming?  It&#039;s getting colder here every year.

E Mum - You never said that about me!  *shuffles off in a sulk*

TT - Ha!  A nice link.  As you say - off topic but whet the hell: it&#039;s a good one.</description>

		<description>English Mum: Why thank you, dear. I don&#039;t suppose you wear glasses do you? ;)

tt: Glad you posted that link. It fills in some of the gaps in what I&#039;ve read over the past few months.</description>

		<description>I love snow and all but it gets frigidly icy up there!  -17C is the winter average temperature!  That&#039;s cold.  Of course, if Gorebal warming continues, Greenland will have lush green fields yet again.  :)

When I was a kid, we got at least a foot of snow a week during the winter.  Nowdays, we rarely see an inch of the powdery white stuff.  :)</description>

		<description>Hey, nice snow cat. And the color works well with your arctic overalls. I could talk with the head of VAST (Vermont Association of Snow Travelers) and see if they might have a spare snow cat they&#039;d be willing to part with.

And it sounds suspiciously like Herself is running an underground railroad type of operation in the basement perhaps? Secret tunnels and all that? Heck, if it helps pay the bills it&#039;s worth putting up with, yes?</description>
