The English is good, but I think it's pretty weak sauce. Ice cubes would work better than dice shaped, I think.

(Loose interpretation)
When the heater in the barn fails, you get milk-flavoured ice cubes.

Haha, good luck ;)! I won't participate in this challenge ;).
I know that all the German fake weather lores I added yesterday will never be as funny in other languages as in German. But I think however translating them is interesting for Tatoeba to help people that are interested in German understanding the funny German ones.

> Haha, good luck ;)!

It's possible if you're willing to push the boundaries of good English to the limits.

When the heater in the barn fails, milk-flavoured ice cubes this entails.

I even managed to get the number of syllables to match. :-P

nice =)!
>push the boundaries of good English to the limits.
what does that mean - should I change it to that version or better not change it?

> what does that mean

It means you shouldn't copy that in an English exam, but people should still be able to tell what it means.

> should I change it to that version or better not change it?

That's up to you. You can always see what any of the other English speakers here think first, though.

Ok, then http://tatoeba.org/eng/sentences/show/414463 ;)
I'll be off for the next couple of hours...

Well, I didn't drink that much tea during all the time, however I think we could make a decision now ;D.
I suggest we leave this translation and add yours, blay_paul, as a second one. Maybe you want to create the second one, blay_paul as it's your great work and the glory should be yours ;) !
