Scotlands the same this year - worst in 20years they say. The Inlaws are up North past Aberdeen and are having a fine time in all the White - even here in Edinburgh I'm still surrounded by snow from the second week in December and its consistent falls. We are in the South Part and on one of the highest Hills so while most of Edinburgh has a melting rest closer to town we still can't get the car out of the car park lol
Being Aussie and living here for 7 years - I have to say this is what I expected winter to be like here when I moved and was disappointed to find it wasn't. SO Im a happy lil ducky. Long as I don't have to go walking round in it too much - Love the Snow - HATE the Ice. In fact I'm almost disappointed we have had 4 days of Sun - I'm waiting for the next fall! The husband who does have to go out in it everyday has taken to giving me very dirty looks. lol.

Winters used to feel like this when I was little.. great fun but now I'm all growed up can see really what a nightmare they are! Find myself indoors not because I'm snowed in it's just too cold out there! Nice to be wrapped up warm with heating on an drinking lots of chai tea.. good for getting my homework done too I have to say! Venturing out today for lunch with a very dear friend so on with the snow boots and ski jacket methinks! Wonder how these celebs manage to look so elegant in their ski gear.. I look like the michelin man :)

HE HE same here!!! If you go back to 1963 like me this is not as bad. Then we had huge icicles hanging from buildings I saw some 5 foot long. Houses were not so warm then..... very few had central heating. I can remember my windows in my bedroom being frozen all over inside. Boy did we have fun playing in all that snow!! Wish I was nimble enough to get on a sled now. But I have been out twice every day walking my dog.
Must be mad but I was out in this blizzard.

HERE ARE 2 LINKS to TWO of my youtube videos talking and demonstrating about this amazing product:

So once i have my image printed onto transparency film, I take my Ezscreen silk screen which has been coated in light sensitive emulsion (These sheets come pre-coated so they are ready to use). Place it onto a black board, then place the transparency image on top (this part needs to be done in a dark room with no direct sunlight). I take it outside and expose it for 1 minute and 40 seconds (but time varies depending on time of day and strength of sunlight). After i have exposed the image i place it into a tub of water for around 5 - 8 minutes. Then i rinse the screen out under fast running water until the unexposed area (the black) washes away. I then expose the screen to the sun for a further 20mins to completely harden the light sensitive emulsion.
And this is the completed screen ready for printing. I simply use an old credit card to spread the ink over the screen making sure i do one complete full stroke across the screen (holding the credit card at a 45 degree angle). I immediately wash the screen out under fast flowing water and pat dry. I use fabric screen printing ink which washes out in water (which makes the process easy).
I love this product, their website is http://ezscreenprint.com/ (for full instructions and details on how to purchase this awesome product).
