Almost 1/2 the population in Canada is apparently maxed out.

Random browsings of google maps and wikipedia results in discovering the line

"The Saskota Flyway (Highway 9) is known as the International Road to Adventure, because it takes you from Hudson Bay, Saskatchewan, all the way south to Bismarck, North Dakota"

How to put this politely.... my idea of 'adventure' is apparently not the same as that author's

This below may be a bit more adventurous!

BC Public Service have a weird way of doing job interviews. Local government here is what I'd consider 'normal' interview - interviewer has questions, you sit down, they ask them, there's back and forth, you can talk, clarify, question back, etc. Provincial? You get given the full list of questions when you arrive, and 20 minutes to study. That is everything you'll be asked, handed to you. Then they show up, read the questions out in full, and write notes as you answer. When you're done talking, they read out the next question.

I suppose it allows for a more 'objective' outcome rather than judging how a conversation goes, but there's no need to be in the same place, they could just video applicants & then watch them all back to back. It's not so much an interview as 'give five short speeches on these topics'.

My wife has had half dozen or so interviews for provincial jobs and this is was she has more or less. She always had a panel interview with 3 people listening but only one talking.

I was just about to get my enigma machine out.

I rediscovered Tea.

Never been a great tea lover but did enjoy Tesco Assam teabags with the cold meats, salmon, sausage roll and christmas cake teatime stuff at my mother's house decades ago.

I'm sure it's available here if you look hard enough but all I ever saw were breakfast blends with some Assam. So a couple of years ago I bought some off Amazon in a funny bag. It was not a good flavour.

My stepdaughter bought some of Whittards version from Home Sense - it's amazing some of the food things they get in there - but I think the one from Amazon put me off.

We came across the packet so I tried one today. Very nice. I just had another.

It won't replace coffee but I can mix it up a bit. Not literally.

Trying to see a doctor sometimes is frustrating. I will try again tomorrow. The province really should lift the cap they place on walk in clinics so they can stay open their full day and not reach their limit within 2 hours of opening.
