That's quite true, stupid snowplow... especially when you just finished shoveling a 3ft high snowbank, then it snows again and the snowplow comes back at 11PM when it's -2C but you wake-up 6 hours later and it's -37C and the snowbank is frozen solid. Ah well, it could be worse (e.g. like living in Russia).

for decades I've removed the snow to the left of my driveway,off the shoulder of the road ( 'up plow' so to speak)so when 'he' comes by only a very little 'road snow' gets tossed into my driveway
I laugh at my silly neighbours who STILL toss snow on BOTH sides of their driveways and curse the plowguy......

hmm, maybe I'm the silly one cause I don't get near the 'exercise' they do ??

This guy went to Florida. I have to find translated version. I really hope no one was offended.

I'm English (so 'snow' is something we have, but only relatively rarely,
and then manage to not have any equipment to deal with at all). However
one of my oldest friends emigrated to Canada, and runs a trucking company
over there, so I understood totally. Have also experienced a winter in Norway,
where they really do know how to deal with this.
Even over here the neighbours will manage to dig snow into your drive.
Despite the language, enjoyed this!... Smile

Not offended at all. The topic of many informal 'driveway chats' with the neighbours often turns to the 'cold white $%&@' we all need to shovel, particularly during the winter months.

....And in my life I've personally seen snow in every month of the year.

Funny thing is I just chatted with my Friend over in Canada, and his
comment was that the poster was lucky to actually get a snowplough!...

Very Happy

Let's just say that having to endure our harsh winters is nothing compared to what is going-on in many parts of the world right now... as much as I hate winter, I'll take -35C temperatures and snow anytime over missles and a crazy dictator next door (although we did have to cope with the Orange narcissitic psychopath down south for 4 years)...

'orange' was good, 'blackface' has been bad....
