OK, dg, requests received and changes made. I hope that is correct.

Turkey replaced with Estonia.

Romania is now Romania/Bulgaria.
Thanks! Good it wasn't the other way around (replacing Turkey with Bulgaria). Considering our history, it could have lead to another war (beside the one between Canada and USA).

I was surprised to see so many Canadians. I thought it might be interesting to find out a bit more about them. So I made a poll....

As everyone knows, in Canada it's as cold as in Finland. Nothing to do in our igloos but snuggle up to our all-terrain vehicles and read.

Hey DG, I posted under Australia, because that's where I live, but I'm currently posting from here. I'll leave it to you decide where my vote should go.

It just wouldn't be an authentic dg poll without a few changes here and there... and now and then... and here and there....

It's -7°C (19.4F) here in Belgium, and it's going to get getting even colder. Sadly enough you don't have to live on the Antarctic to get Antarctic weather

But on the plus side: we have lots of snow and I'm looking forward to making a huge snowman this weekend

That's it, I'm definitely going to be super grateful for my nice "warm" 44F (about 7C) weather.

Have fun building the snowman.
