What's your weather like.? MK3..

I think I can realize where it is this picture from.
It is probably the main "square" of the city of "Lonate Pozzolo" (in the administrative land of "Varese").
If I am wrong, I go to hide myself because of the shame ...
"Lonate Pozzolo" is one of the town whose area is very close to where Malpensa Airport is situated.
People living in "Lonate Pozzolo" have something in common to people living in Hounslow (London): both of them use to be awakened by the noise of the big airplanes landing over their heads.
Indeed when I want to be kidding I use to say to my friends that Malpensa is not one of Milan's Airport...
Actually - I say (just kidding) - it is the "Lonate Pozzolo International Airport" (think that Lonate has a population of just a few thousands people, the same size of a very small town, whereas Malpensa is an Airport with two parallels runways 14,000 ft long, two terminals, the more important european airlines, USA airlines, airlines from the middle-east, the far east, asia, Brazil and where such big planes as b747 and even a380 use to land).

Just a question, Jack: did you really happen to be there ??? Why ???
Maybe because you got the wrong bus to Milan, got off and got lost ???
Yes, because only if one get lost, then he can happen to be in Lonate Pozzolo (it is like saying: in the middle of nowhere...).
Anyway, the fountain and the houses with their frontyards are nice. Aren't they ?

 

I always wonder if in Britain use the Fahrenheit or the Celsius scale.
Someone of you told me both of them...
Anyway, you say "36f"...
Let me see: 36 less 32 by five divided into nine. About +2 C ???

 

Do you know the scientific reason why ice is slippery ?

 

Fahrenheit is more "accurate" a scale.
Indeed there is a wider range between a value and the following one.
Indeed that's range is 9/5 greater than the celsius range between one degree and the following one.
But Celsius is more practical: "zero" is where water turn into ice, +100 is where water turn into "water gas" (I don't know the word in english).
I remember, when I visited New York long time ago (1988) that all the displays in the street displayed temperature in Fahrenheit.
"+95 " I used to read (it was August and everyone of you knows how hot is New York in August).
So I guess that probably english people have not still "make the decision" wether to use F or C .
American people did defenetely make the decision: F A H R E N H E I T.
But they are "Americans" (they don't even like football that they call "soccer")...

 

Woke this morning to a good covering, probably 10cm. Aggie, the Jack Russell puppy loved it. Then I saw that we couldn't get down the drive as the snow had weighed the bamboo down so much that it was completely obstructed.

Half and hour bashing it with the rake and it lifted sufficiently to let us walk down the drive. Then we took the 22 year old daughter sledging, which was great fun.

Despite the sky being steely grey over the sea, no more has fallen. The other half later slithered her car down the drive and parked in a nearby car park on the flat so we can use it tomorrow to get said daughter to the station so she can get back to London.

 

did you see?

Evening all,
Well it's sunday "again" and i was wondering if you kept your appointment and went to church?
Ive got a great excuse "it's snowing" and im sure the man up stairs knows all about it

And so its been a day of continuing to get the lounge cieling painted, the trouble with this cieling is that its beamed and im painting the inbetween parts white,

It's the sort of job you have tobe careful you dont get paint on the beam edges and so its a long knecking bending job and its a two coat job,
But tomorrow i'll be finished this part and then its onto the walls and thank god that they're not being painted white,
All i seem to see indoors and out is the colour white.

But again its snowed here most of the day "Did anyone see the football on the tele last night, As the players tried to play in all the snow and the cameraman tried to keep his lens clear of snow,
What did the really hard fans do? Strip off the shirts

-8c as i write this, must go and put another jumper on

 

Minus 11, right now (9:40 PM).
Tomorrow early in the morning I'd better to drive to work by sledge.
Anyway, I tell you what: I've got a feeling that when temperature is lower than a certain value (say: minus 10) that doesn't make any difference.
It could be minus 10, minus 11, minus 12, ..., minus 15 but it's all the same...
I mean: you feel the same. If you are propeperly dressed, you are ok. Else, you are not (no matter what).

 

Snow! Whats that? Dry and overcast here today, the warmest day we've had for a week. 8C

 

For maksim

I was staying in Malpensa House, relaxing for a couple of days until my home flight with Easy Jet



TOWN CARDANO AL CAMPO

ADDRESS Via G. Galilei n. 10
TOWN CODE 21010
AREA VARESE​

minus 13 at 11:30 PM. Temperature is dropping one degree every two hours. I've just step out my house door to the front-yard.
Bitterly cold !
My breath quickly condenses into a thick cloud. But the air is extremely dry. The sky is clear and stars are visible.

 

Cardano al Campo! I lived there! There was my previous home !
But the photo with the fountain looks like "Lonate Pozzolo"...
I am not sure...
With Easy Jet we are well connected to Britain.
The same time as a tube ride. Some 1 hour and 30 minutes and you are in Gatwick / Luton. The same time as travelling from Elephant & Castle to Baker Street by tube in the rush-hour...

PS Oh, probably I am wrong about the fountain... That's fountain was not in the main square of Cardano when I lived there. They built it after I moved from Cardano. It might be...
