we have a house!
 
finally my OH has secured a house in Kingston!, it has an above ground pool so my little one of 10 will be well sorted!, one task done, 100 to go!,, he has also got his Ontario driving licence sorted out too, but this living in a motel is draining us of money.......we cannot move in the house till end of August, me and the girls and cat fly out on the 24th so that adds to the expence,,,,and if they wont let him sart work till october because his registration is taking forever to get sorted thats another month with out money, :(
i suppose ill have to start work as soon as i get there,,,,instead, where is the nearest timmies!!:rofl:

Hi, we live about 5 mins drive away from Waterloo village - you've got easy access to loads of stuff from where you're living as it's fairly central. Kingston is a great place - I think the city has a really nice feel & there's always something to do or go and see.

We moved over from the UK about 18 months ago & really love the place.

Let me know if you need any info or advice on the area etc.

Regards, Andy.

do you know of any catteries in the area, really hard to find them on line, we have 1 cat that we are bringing over, but our house isnt ready till the end of the month so it will mean staying in hotel from the 24th! the holiday inn takes pets for an extra $15 a night, but not ideal,
do they call them something different over there?
