Our central heating is not on and I am finding it too cold to play. I literally cant use the pad properley as my hands hurt with the cold. Anyone else having problems?

One plus point I guess I dont have to worry about red light of death. PS3 loves the icy climate

I here its cold and lonely on Yavin. Maybe you should consider a move to Earth. We have electricity and women here. Both good for cold weather.

No problems here in Australia - the mercury has just touched a rather warm 40.c here in sunny old Adelaide! Airconditioning is currently running at WEP

yellow light of death. Don't throw away your ps3 just cause it's in standby mode

Much better to use them in the cold, as long as it's not below the dew point or cold enough to cause condensation. I leave my thermostat at 65 fahrenheit.

Cold. Now -27.6`C and couple of weeks it's been between -20 to -31 degrees celcius. But we are used to this so it's not that big of problem comparing to middle and southern europe.

I am actually holidaying on Hoth. Little wookies not happy cos Santa was eaten by a snow beast. Nice digs though, rebel base with only a few holes in the roof. Heading out tomorrow to look at the ATAT ruins. Tauntaun hire is expensive though.:)

That photo is amazing. It reminds me of The Day After Tomorrow.
Apparently this weather is down to an arctic oscilation. I did some reading on it. Very interesting. I played bop for about 4 hours last night and the ps3 actually warmed the room up. That thing kicks out some serious heat!

Yep, that's it :)

Man I love the snow, I wish I could fly a Bf-109 in her winter camo :grin:

Speaking of winter and planes, has this been posted yet?

Gotta love the Arizona desert, shorts & a tee-shirt in January! Although sadly the horrible summers cancel out the nice winter weather. :(

Poor Canada, first Russia stole hockey and now the UK stole the snow.

Mate a nice cold era would be awesome to me :D. but I think this is what Dwookie said, just an arctic oscillation.
Some ppl here are saying somethin' about magnetic poles switching polarity...but I can't see how that could affect weather this way

Personally I prefer the summer games, but the winter ones are still interesting. I think the little sleds are pretty cool (luge & skeleton I believe). My favorites are ski jumping and stunt snowboarding, though.

2 years ago I flew 8 hours then sat on a bus for 3 hours from London to Whistler to go snowboarding only to find they were having the worst snowfall in 60 years... Pffft. Should've just gone to Milton Keynes.

Lol yeah :D

Speaking of snowboarding, i'm usually not patriotic but our Italian alps are great (and closer ;))

Yep :) We went just the other side last year to Chamonix. My brothers crossed the mountains and found an Italian village (I was too lazy lol), but they said it was uber-expensive and like a ghost town...

Still, Monica Bellucci > Sophie Marceau, so you get my vote ;)

what was the score in 2008 worlds, 8-1 or something...

but you're right, it was originally the USA that stole hockey from Canada.
