Happy Winterval everyone !!!
May your letterboxes be stuffed full with anonymous brown envelopes offering seasons greetings of medical requests, passport requests and a deluge of shiny hologrammed visas with Mounties, bears and reindeer on them.
May seasonal travels be safe without lengthly airport delays, or if so may airport lounges be warm and have comfy seats to doss on and Timmys aplenty.
May "it's our last UK Christmas"-es be warm and fluffy and without interfamily brawls, rows and upsets.
May we all avoid seasonal hangovers of gargantuan size.
May the snow otters and ice weasels sleep soundly in their ice caves....

Bit early for all this isnt it, not like we have to meet the post deadline!
"Happy Holidays" anyway, I hope 2006 will be a year for all to remember.

A very Merry Christmas to you and all British Expats users too. It's our first Christmas here in Canada, but we do have family coming over to visit so it shouldn't be too hard.
MERRY CHRISTMAS

A couple of things for you to bear in mind.
1) Things shut down early on Christmas Eve (like mid-afternoon). That includes many of the pubs.
2) Your sources of booze (LCBO and Beer Store) are unlikely to be open on the public holidays. Stock up!

Very mixed feelings in our camp about that, but we have each other, and hopefully some snow, and are looking forward to a festive Christmastime.
Good wishes too, to all of you playing the waiting game, and I sincerely hope that Canada will be all you dream it to be.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND GOOD WISHES TO ALL

If it is your first christmas in Canada I hope it goes well and that you don't miss family, friends and Blighty too much
For those of us still in the UK and enjoying our "last UK" christmas, I hope you make the most of it and have some great memories to take to Canada with you.
For those at the start of the waiting game, keep smiling
