    Looks like cruelty!

    Nah, they’re allowed to wear shoes. :-)

    the inevitability of doing dumb shit that makes you writhe with shame in the cold hard light of hindsight

    Thanks for saying that, Craig. Glad I'm not the only one! I think growing up is a lifelong process...I thought I was grown up 20 years ago! Gah.

    If I didn’t know how cold it was, and how many people in Christchurch are displaced, I would envy people who live in places where it snows.

    Snow is very beautiful. If we weren't so disaster-weary, we'd probably be loving it too. The "snow days" that we used to get about once every year were a fun day off for most people. But last year after everything else we had 2 major snowfalls, each lasting a week. It was too much, and too scary.

    We had no water here for a few hours last night, owing to a burst main somewhere, and even though I knew it was just an ordinary outage, I felt quite panickey. It was a reminder of the really bad times. :-(

    and snow people

    So the snow daleks have something to exterminate. ;-)

    Great weather for football, eh?

    Cold feet run faster?

    I liked that effect too. This was one that I could have included.

    Yeah, nice. They don't look like ordinary mortals here, and they're not! :-)

    More of the flaming light show.

    Yeah, love that one.

    All this makes me wonder when I'll be getting my ice skates out of storage...I wonder if they're going rusty in there...

    PS you know they're singing about this?

    Anyone got the musical reference yet?

    Ohhh, now I get it. ;-)

    I actually like the slightly blurred Ice Stars best - they look speedy and glamorous.

  • Capture: Ice Rink Luck,

    <sigh> Wish we could have one of these in central Chch.

    The informal ice-rink we had on the front steps and (steeply sloping) driveway a few weeks back isn't the same thing at all!
    I thought of that when I read the words "nutcracker on ice" -- sounds like a horrific accident. :-)
    But the Ice Stars are amazing, and the photos are lovely.
