    Default Maple Leaf

    Were going, the wife and I are flying to Canada a week on Wed to see her sister who is not in the best of health,so we decided to go while we still can .
    Am really looking forward to it as they are a great bunch they are all over Ontario, but they do tend to organise you a bit lol ,even looking forward to the flight . Joe.

    Have a great time Joe and good wishes to your sister-in-law. I have a soft spot for Ontario where I lived in the mid-fifties when the Toronto subway was still under construction. If you pass by St Catherines give a wave for me. I spent many weekends there with my Uncle George who immigrated to Canada from Bradford, Yorks after he was demobbed from the British army in 1919.

    I'm sure will enjoy Ontario as I reckon that,apart from the U.K., Canada is the best country in the world to live in and either Ontario and B.C. would be the only other place I would consider living in. Actually had 4 job offers within 6 hours of arriving in Prince Rupert one trip (Including the Canadian Coastguard) which if both my wife's and mine parents not been in their 60's and been unable to fly, we would have jumped at moving out there.

Temp. today 80C, Sunny, etc.

    Ha ha, Good one Eric.
    Hope you are keeping well?
    My son flew out yesterday to Thunder Bay, Ontario.
    Got a job drilling in a mine. Think the mine is about an hours drive north of the airport. Never had the pleasure of being any further East than Calgary.
    Except of course the Eastern seaboard.
