depending on where you are, it certainly will

unless you're in the uk, then it'll just be wet snow.


but thats according to the weathermen, so we could end up with sunny earthquakes instead

We once had an incident when I was working at a cash and carry and the asian customers threatened to boycott us at Xmas. We thought it was great and stood at the checkouts singing "Im dreaming of a WHITE christmas"

Snow ?? Good god no, I'm hoping for 25 degree, and clear skies.

It's never snowed where I live in 150 years, and that's good enough for me. In the unlikely event that I ever want to see snow again, it'll be throw the lens of a very powerful telescope.

. they have more sheep than people in NZ.

Found this at http://www.gullible.info/sheep.php

Fact Checking: First things first: we set out to find out what the actual ratio of sheep to people was in New Zealand, Australia and Norway. Was the New Zealand ratio 11:1, as Exor would have us believe, or 4:1 as Dave seemed to think? Only Gullible.info would be able to find out. Statistics provided by the New Zealand government showed that in 1999, there were 58,679,891 sheep in New Zealand, compared to 3,529,600 people, giving a ratio of 15.2 sheep for every one person. Indeed we had established that New Zealand has more sheep than people (or they did in 1999).

Delving deeper into the problem, we found that Australia also shared this imbalance of wool-covered creatures and people, weighing in with around 140 million sheep for only 18.2 million people, a ratio of 8.5:1.

But what about Norway, you're probably asking? Extended research with several experts, as well some help from the fine folks at the Agricultural branch of the European Union helped us peg the number at around 32,442, as of November, 2002. Population in Norway? According to the CIA, 4,574,560. Ratio of sheep to humans: .00709:1. We were off by a little.

But how did this error make its way through the cracks? Well, in looking back over our original research, we found that microfiche slides we examined were dated "19 Nov. 97," which we incorrectly assumed to be from 1997. These statistics from the International Sheep Farmer's Newsletter were published November 19th, 1897, before the population explosion Norway experienced in the mid-20th century, and before New Zealand and Australia were independent countries. Long story short, if Gullible.info had published this fact 106 years ago, it wouldn't have been a problem.

Correction: New Zealand has the highest ratio of sheep to humans of any country in the world.

I think so, down in the South Island. For me in Auckland snow is optional though, I can drive 5 hours to the nearest ski fields. I used to hate living in Scotland, driving home in the snow.

The sheep thing is a little over the top, one of the top tourist attractions is sheep based.
