It's just started snowing here again...

What the hell's going on with the weather? This has probably been one of the coldest winters I've experienced here. A pseudo-arctic up-yours to global warming, LOL.

@ Hobbster:
Ya it's kinda the same here. Snow like this is a real lekker novelty; feels kewl, looks even keeewler and what joy with snowfights, snowmen, etc etc.
But it's a bugger to drive in, when the temperature goes below zero and 'cakes' the snow that was starting to melt/thaw into a blanket of hard ice on pavements etc it's bloody difficult to just walk around without worrying about landing unceremoniously on your posterior.
And like this morning: start the car engine, then get out with the ice scrapers to scrape the notable layer of ice off the car windows and mirrors, yanking and tugging the car door handles like mad just to get into the car, due to the ice freezing the door seals a fair bit, etc.

Yeah after a few days of enjoying the snow, it ends up being a real hindrance as regards getting around. Bril if you're on holiday, a bugger if you're having to work in these conditions.

I think The Xperia font is Tahoma GUCCI but Ive just been reading up on some stuff and they say Windows Mobile 6 use Microsoft Tahoma (default variable-width font) So it slightly altered.Im trying to track down the variable-width Tahoma font version as we speak(If such a thing exist.) Tahoma on my P990i looked absolutely awesome.Its slightly less desirable on my E90 but Im working on getting it perfect.Its got something to do with aliasing??? A little tweak here and there in the fontrouter.ini should do the trick.Also try out FontRouter Man on Ipmart.You dont even have to go into the fontrouter.ini.You just do it in FontRouter Man.

Tahoma Gucci you can find in your Control Panel>Fonts on Windows XP

They've really taken him to task over his statement, and I hope that they'll force him to formally apologize to Buthelezi as well. It's absolutely disrespectful of him or anybody else to utter such drivel. On the plus side, he has placed himself in the public spotlight, and thus comes in for a fair bit of stick, and deservedly so. The Weekend Post's cartoonist produced this little gem.




I'm not superstitious, merely mildly stitious.
