Oil is no reason to live someplace.

Works for the Norwegians  ;)

Maybe, but they have got fish, not cattle.  :P

And perhaps a few other differences that might make living in Norway a bit better than Texas.

The bulk of the Norwegian oil is out at sea, while most of them live on land.

I agree it's a shame they gave up their seafaring ways :(

The heavy rain came for us a couple of days ago and it's been overcast ever since. I've gone from delighted to furious :blush: :lol:

I found it hadn't helped as much as I wanted. My flat was still hot (as the heat stayed in it) and was rather humid.

My parents are up in the far north for a wedding. It's about 15 degrees and a decent summer :lol:

Western parts of Austria have been devastated by wind and rain the last couple of days. Two children and three adults died.

Today was a record breaking scorcher in Vancouver - on the CC deck, it was 38C in the shade.  Crazy temperatures for this time of year.

Rain continues to come down in Central Texas after four months of scorching heat. Never been so happy to reach September.
