In 6 days, the days are getting longer again! Summer is coming. :)

@blumenkraft Ah crap, here we go again. 😎

@Streakmachine i take it that's irony. Otherwise, I need to question something here. 😂
1051727
@blumenkraft You're not wrong there, friend! ðŸĪĢ

I love the summer about as much as I love winter. All seasons have their unique charm, and I wouldn't want to remove any of them to prolong or shorten any of the others.

But mosquitos can die in a fire!

@Streakmachine I hate winter so much. I hate the cold, the darkness. I don't even like snow that much. If it was about me, I would eliminate winter completely. Spring - summer - fall - summer! This is how I would arrange seasons. :)

@blumenkraft Each to their own, and I respect that. I enjoy the cold, but I'm weird. Snow has a charm too, specially when I'm out driving. I just love to make cars go sideways, either they're supposed to or not. ðŸĪŠ
1051733
@Streakmachine LOL, okay! But take care, mate. Never overdo sidewards. ;)
1051734
@blumenkraft Always safety first! Never play when there are people or other cars around, only go as far as you’re comfortable. So far that mentality has kept me out of accidents.

@blumenkraft And anything that is hidden in snow. Which can be very hard things that a car does not appreciate making contact with. ðŸĪĢ
1051742
@Streakmachine especially sidewards. !! :'D

@Kabuku @blumenkraft oh the excitement of the average commute in winter conditions.

@Kabuku @blumenkraft At some point I hope to visit Alaska or the northern territories in Canada during winter. I’m that nuts!

@Streakmachine I'm driving a Smart car. Almost as wide as it's long. So for me, it wouldn't make so much of a difference I guess. LOL
1051745
@blumenkraft Unless you enjoy the feeling of travelling diagonally around the roundabouts. For that feeling, any car is definitely good enough, as long as it's just a teeny bit slippery.
1051746
@Streakmachine I have to admit, i'm driving like an 80 yo. I'll never come into such a situation.
1051747
@blumenkraft Safe driving is never a bad thing! Far better than most people I see out on the roads.
1051748
@Streakmachine Yeah, if you have like 2 tonnes of steel around you, I get that people feel safe in their cars doing high speed. The Smart is less than 1000 kg. There is not much crumble zone...

@blumenkraft My main machine is a 1991 Toyota Carina, so I'm probably closer to your safety level than the people I have to fight on the roads.

ABS? What's that? Side impact protection? Never heard of! Airbag? What?!

@Streakmachine this is so cool. What's on your odometer?
1051905
@blumenkraft If I remember correctly, it should be around 229000km now. Soon it’s broken in, after 30 years. 😁

Some older gentleman who owned it from new until 2017, so it’s in really good condition, all things considered.
1051909
@Streakmachine my Smart is at 182k !! You won. :)
1051911
@blumenkraft My car does have a few more years behind it, in more ways than one. 😆

@blumenkraft I love the snow, and don’t mind the cold, but I’m always ready for longer days and more sunshine. The dark/grey gets old easily. /@Streakmachine
1051736
@Wife I agree grey sucks! And boi is it grey here lately. :(
