Swedish Miles. Are they different to normal miles biggrin.gif I hate cold weather and I hate walm weather. Give me temperatures around 17 degrees celcius all year and I'd be happy biggrin.gif

Why the difference? I thought it was the same for the whole of Europe?

Snow is still far away from here then.
When I grew up 200 km north from here it was actually a huge differance. There we had plenty of snow during winters and sometimes 20 below zero on a really cod day. Here (and I don't live in the city but in a suburb) snow quickly turns into mud/slask sad.gif
It's wierd though, only 200 km away it's such a difference.

A swedish mile is actually the normal thing. It's you guys who drive on the wrong side of the road who are complicating things wink.gif

Oh I thought this was another movie thread, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0432289/ and it turns out to be about the real cold, harsh awful snow. Man, do I live in the wrong part of the world.
