Default HAPPY CANADA DAY

Yup, the Maple Leaf is flying and we are getting ready for Canada Day.

What is everyone getting up to today ???

Our Cul-de-Sac is having our annual Canada Day street party. We have a bouncy castle, water slides, the BBQ's will be fired up and the beers in a canoe filled with ice. The weather is glorious and we are set for a good day !!


Have fun, however you celebrate it !!!!

Happy Canada to everyone both sides of the "pond"

We will be enjoying Canada Day in Canada next year

We have got a large Canada flag on display and that is making us smile!

Happy Canada Day everyone.

We are off to the eldest sons, girlfriends, parents, Canada Day Pig Roast.

There will be drinking and merriment and hot piggy. Hopefully no rain, though it is rather Grey and overcast

Tomorrow will be spent recovering, as one is no longer as young as one once was, and the booze takes longer to wear off, The Wife says, 'don't drink so much" but I find that rarely works

So, may a Great Day be had by all.

Happy Canada Day everyone.

Busy day for me today, I'm a firefighter so had to be out doing traffic control for a kiddie's bike ride first thing in the morning, more traffic control for the parade. Then we got an emergency call during the raising of the flags - just a small fire, a couple of extinguishers put it out. After that I had an excellent game of 'water balloons' (I won a prize of 'free cheeseburger & fries') followed by a couple of hours of 'letting people have a go on my hose'.

Now I'm back home having a rest before the fireworks tonight - we're having a good time.

I'd like to have a rest tomorrow but I've got to tile my bathroom.
