One video footage of a fire looked like the gates of hell had opened it was so horrific. Our extreme winter isn't nearly as deadly or disastrous. However, there is thick pollution over Salt Lake City, much like China's pollution, that worries.<br /><br />One of the comments about English 'translations' said never to use the word 'fanny' in Australia. We have something here called a 'fanny pack' (sorta like a little backpack) that is commonly used. I can see how a tourist could use such a word without knowing it's offensive. When you have a chance, could you e-mail me (kittiehoward@gmail.com) and translate this word?

H...A blog hop to help Andrew. This is wonderful...<br /><br />Heat sounds terrible over there, though. 109! Gasp. I've only experienced this kind of heat in the far southwest desert corner of Utah, in a small town where Jen and I lived from 2000 to 2005, St. George, Utah. I HATED the heat. No bush fires, though. That is what is so awful for those Aussies who are thus afflicted! They do sound tough, though, and yes, firefighters are the most service-minded human beings. They put their lives on the line for us!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7362528912516506170.post-73856646175307143562013-01-24T03:43:08.047+10:002013-01-24T03:43:08.047+10:00Hey, Denise,.
