6. Thank you.

Do you generally get a lot of snow where you are? I would think so.

Just hope you are safe and snug.

8. Six bastards?

Never heard that one, but like it.

What do you know of the origins, please?

9. Local vernacular

though when I googled all references were Irish, Australian, etc...

"Also it usually rains like six bastards when the tournament is on because that's what it does in Auckland between Christmas and New Year."

" we ate like six bastards. We packed up and descended to base camp, passing teams of Germans, Swiss and Americans with guides ..."

" Most of my driving is on the M50, early morning 5/6am start so I'm belting alone like six bastards on a mission (no cops or traffic at that hour)."

I just heard it, thought it was wicked good, and adopted it into my speech patterns...

10. Thanks!
