Canada Day plans?
 

I'm having a bbq for my Canadian friends, where there won't be a hotdog or hamburger in sight. It's going to be marinated lamb chops with mint sauce, rosemary chicken, a thai green mango salad and pistachio ice cream sundaes for pudding. And I might even break out the cricket set and have a knock about.

Anybody doing anything special for Canada Day?

You actually have Canadian friends?

How do you stand the mediocrity?

I like to stand out in a crowd. ;)


Are you doing anything nice for Canada Day? Getting your face paintd with a maple leaf, letting off some fireworks?

I imagine that a BBQ round at Oink's would be rather like this:

Encouraging my kids and friends kids to win at the mutton and calf rustlin at Airdire rodeo.

They won't have a problem cos no-one else will be intersted in winning

Work in the morning, Golf in the afternoon, Mexican in the evening :thumbup:

The latter two with stereotypical West Coast Canadians - 1x Mexican, 1x Filipino, 1x Chinese, 1x White Canadian, and none of them drive a taxi. :thumbsup:

I'd like to say it's multicultural but they have bugger all to do with their birth culture :)

If any of us are sober enough by that point I think we will also go and watch the fireworks in Coal Harbour.

No plans here. I am off for a holiday for the first time in 15 years, but I dont have any plans as everyone I know is working.

Re: Canada Day plans?
 

I'm not exactly going to be shoving maple leaf flags up my backside but it seems as good day for a party. And in comparison of all the excessive bugle blowing 4th of July bollox I had to endure down there, Canada Day is a refreshingly low key affair.

Depends on the weather.

- If it's nice I'm gonna spend it in the garden; either working on it or sitting about in it with booze.

- If it's nasty, it's a PS3 weekend.

I suspect it will be a combination of the two.
