I just got back from a bit of skating at the Forks after work!

Have you got a schedule in terms of moving to Winnipeg - if you are looking at end of the summerish I might be able to point you in the direction of a nice fully furnished 3/4 bed house to rent - some friends are taking a sabbatical and would like to rent their place out for a while

Thanks Snowshoveller, I should be able to answer that in a couple of weeks, but at the moment I'm thinking end of June maybe into July depending on the CIC, I'll keep you posted.

Fantastic - info -
East St Paul is --rurally and loads of people do the drive in from there.
You could look at North Kildonan as well around the Gateway Rec area.

Checked with a colleague who travels in from Oakbank - 30 minute non-rush 40 minutes during uses a tank fo gas - a week , plus $130 for parking.
so $270 dollars to get to work. -- but he commutes with his wife so works out $135 each not bad.

If you want any info on Oakbank he's the guy as he's lived there all his life and move 3 times. to the different areas

I should be available to make it.

Adam recently contacted me with regards to a meet up so hopefully he should be available to but he should be along to confirm that himself in the next little while...

So is Feb 5th good for people? (Its a thurs)

ADAMC

I'm around on the 5th if a meet-up is on the cards.

I have a feeling though that the location of our last meet-up has now closed - hopefully not connected to us in any way!

WinniBee - regards rentals, I think the Corydon area has quite a few apartments that are usually for rent, but not too sure about single-family dwellings. But with 2 large universities in the city there does always seem to be lecturers going on sabatical so willl keep my ears open on any vacancies.

WinniBee

Thanks everyone, I've now got some school visits lined up and a hire car to go on a neighbourhood reccie.

The 5th is a Thursday so if folks do fancy a light refreshment I'll gladly participate.
