That must have been pretty grim.
It sure hurt, like the 'blazes' and ached for weeks
it was [I learned] a greenstick-fracture and bits had punctured muscles
even, the weight of the plaster cast... caused me gyp [enormous]
am so glad it is just memory

.Many times .... as a boy scout and also as a soldier
nothing to it !
and is certainly NOT 'roughing it' when your needs become basically minimal
eg: if you can do without telly and an electric stove and fridge
then, it can be absolutely marvelous [ou-there, with nature in the raw]
same question
Yep - I LOVE camping....I went with Guides and also with my parents as a kid, and also go with my family.
If it were practicable I would live all year round outside.
The rain and the mud doesn't put me off. A couple of years ago we went camping, and the whole time it rained. We were the only ones there, and the field turned into a quagmire. And one day and night there was a really high wind. I think the campsite owners thought we were mad!
I just love all kinds of weather. (obviously extrene weather can be dangerous, or if it were to flood, so that's a bit different)
But it's great waking up in the morning and being able to stick your head straight outside,
HYE played a musical instrument?
I learned and played a Flugel Horn at High School
I missed playing in the school concerts[after school hours]
because Dad couldnt be bothered
to take me there and bring me back, after, he had had a day at work
I havent played one since
same-question
HYE played a musical instrument?
but i was also thinking it must have been horrible getting bronchitus every year
I was small for my age, pale and thin... 'undernourished' they said
little wonder I was bullied so-much at school
Funny that... cos when I look back...
when I came on leave from my tour in Cyprus, I bumped into
several former classmates from High School
I had outgrown them
and I could see them visibly cringe... 'anxious'
as to whether, I would now, seek revenge
doubtless, they walked on so very relieved
that I wasnt 'the sort'
to gain pleasure from, inducing pain in them
HYE gone to the theatre?
No but I once sang and played a sailor boy
in a school-production of, The Pirates Of Penzance
and was given a standing ovation [soprano]
same question
HYE gone to the theatre?

nah not! I guess I grew up in an age/ social structure
that could assign, the terms: 'old-fashioned' and 'hoity-toity' to such activities
I have... watched Come-Dancing on several occasionshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whistler,_British_Columbia
but have never had any inclination whatever to take it up myself
I have enjoyed dancing Reggae though
HYE taken dancing lessons of ANY kind
HYE wondered how the snow-plough driver gets to work in the morning?
Easy enough to grab it out >>> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whistler,_British_Columbia
For sure he has to have [or, be] snow-mobile
Though plainly, when such snowfalls are expected
they MUST... work in shifts and helicopters can transport key-workers to key-sites
lol spouses.... they try.... to be so-helpful.... dont-they ?
HYE wondered HOW
so much WEIGHT of water/ snow can be carried by clouds
that are, so-easily blown on the wind ?
yeppers
In plain language
the water density of a volume of air grows with a rise in temperature
via evaporation
when the temperature of the air is reduced /cooled the volume shrinks
and brings about condensation [condensing]
Because warm air rises it displaces cold air forcing it downward
the MORE warm air is then additionally displaced [upwards]
this 'cycle' also returns condensing water back upwards
until the density of the water vapour cannot be supported by this cycle
which is when precipitation [rain] is then no longer preventable
This 'cycle' can get 'carried-away'
in a chain-reaction that will then create a storm
remember, that, warm rises and cold falls
the more that rises > the more that cold will come down also
the more cold, that falls so then
the more warm air is displaced upwards carrying warm moist air and
some of the falling cold moisture upwards above the cold
AND as a result of finding cold air from next to outer space NOW
so much closer to the planet
will therefore begin condensation much earlier
and so replace moisture immediately above that still falling
thus, all this moisture now entering into the newly vacated near vaccuum
will be drawn to the surface also
HYE considered our planet to be something like the nucleus of an atom ?
and thereby... have a new understanding of lightning
