Re: Photos please...
We'd not been in the house long and the grass was desperate for a cut.....little did OH realise the work involved in cutting a 1/3 acre of grass with a flymo LOL 
A couple of weeks later we bought a neighbour's old John Deere ride-on for $400 and that was his favourite toy

Re: Photos please...
Thanx for those pics bananahammock.......bring back some nice memories of our six week BC stint in 2005. We were in Campbell River for 4 days with OH's brother and spent an hour at Elk Falls.....here are mine!! I must admit, it is scary $hit when you read that sign about clearing the area quickly when the sirens go off when they open up the dam (or something like that!!)
The last pic was looking over to Quadra Island from Campbell River

Re: Photos please...
Hi,
Just been on the NZ forum they have a "great NZ picture thread", I was wondering if there is anyone out there who would mind sharing some photos of Canada with us. It would really help people like me (who haven't even been there yet) get an idea of what life in Canada is like.
Anyone got any pictures?...
