I say good luck to the lad. It's refreshing to read a bit of a different perspective rather than the hackneyed and obsequious pc bollox you find too often on here.

As I inferred from my last post, it's all a bit of an act anyway (if you ask me).

I had quite a good argument at Metro today (a shop I hate) with someone who thought it was ok to take 25 items through the express line. Got called an effing asshole and the guy threatened to hit me. Then his OH told me to have a miserable life. Of course everyone else in the line acted all cradle and pretended nothing was happening.

Never had this in Waitrose. Quite entertaining.

I think the place LondonMike mentioned was Coxwell and Gerrard.

Was it in a basket or did he have the audacity to wheel it through in a trolley?

i think some of you need to jump off your high horse - he clearly has provided his opinion on what he see's of toronto thus far. just because he is a young punk that has come over on a bunac to shag the shit outta some local floozies doesnt mean his opinion is worthless.

there are plenty of younger fork here looking for a genuine opinion in the eyes of people sub 30 years of age who are here for a fun, party life.

to those of you who are in it for the longer haul, career focused, have children then you'll think his comments are unjust but the reality is that everyone see's cities differently - particularly based on different circumstances and probably more importantly, budget.

the big t.o aint all that !

Quality troll Sephiroth is and also a bit of a nerd judging by his screen-name (FF?).

Oh yeah and don't bother with Vancouver it's proper shit. Whistler is worth a visit though.

Seem to me pal like I'm doing you a favour and offering you a chance to occupy your time.
Given that you have been here before, that's a bit 'rich', isn't it? Seems you have wasted Sue's time by leaving in a huff and making her disable your account, then rejoining after such a short time.

You know the rules from your last time on the forum. So quit trolling, lose the offensive language, and hopefully you can stick around.

Name and shame....what was the previous incarnation ?

Don't worry, I know you won't tell, so no need to speak to me like a 5 year old.
