ah but there wouldnt be a summer if the weather was the same all year round... it would just get monotonous and boring.. ah who am i kidding... the thought of no whitinag all year round sounds good, but alas there would be no cod about either..

I can remember what a cod is, but what's a summer?

Also, the weather IS the same all year round.... Sh&te.....
