Spring was here back in Dec last year, even the weather forecasters wrote off winter. :har:

Lighter days now and the birds are chirping and that bloody ice cream van with its bloody music is back to drive me mad!

Although those temperatures are inviting, IF we were to get those suddenly we would have wide spread flooding of epic proportions. Nova Scotia would have it a lot worse. Their only consolation is that the extra water could go into the ocean.
I would much rather have a slow warmup, a little below freezing at night and a little above in the day time.

Two options without resorting to violence.
(1) turn your hearing aid off,
(2) wear headphones with your choice of music.:D

Just go buy some ice cream. It won't make the noise stop but you will feel better. :yep:

And it's not over. Snowing out right now. :/\\!!

and there is more coming your way. We got 3" yesterday.

At least you had a break, the one round our way never stopped! Every weekend throughout winter, come hell or high water bloody 'Teddy Bears Picnic' got played. It makes me wonder if he's selling stuff other than ice cream in winter?:hmmm:

1. I'm not that old. :haha:
2. Pointless it's far too loud, I can hear the dam thing van three blocks away! :o

True got a three month break just wish it would sod off for good. The days of the ice cream van going up and down streets is over this is not the 1970's anymore.

You don't have to be old to be deaf, but it helps.
Like anything else, you will eventually learn to ignore it. Kinda like 'listening' to your wife nag at you.

10 years now and I can still hear it! :huh:

Oh, definitely (1) I reckon :)

On my dead end road there are no garbage* trucks, real or imagined.
*ice cream trucks

Wow, more snow?

We got 3" of rain yesterday. I am really tired of winter :/\\!!

I would rather have snow than rain and a slow warm up.
