These were on full bore like an airport runway. There's no underestimating the retardation level of some Kelownians.

Ours go up next week, always halloween weekend before it gets too cold.Get switched on 1st December. That's our gameplan.

We got our first card about two weeks ago :zzz:

My great uncle and aunt from London, organized as ever. God knows how long ago they posted it (can't read the postmark) - it was sent surface mail :rofl:
