I'd give my eye teeth for a visit to Ikea! Actually...a visit to any reasonably large shop!

Not drop-leaf, nor any bits sliding out, the top was hinged and swivelled to double the size. Very sturdy. Given the few things I did have shipped over I really don't know why I didn't include the table. :( |

I drove past the one in Ottawa about 5 times last week. Sadly travelling with only carryon luggage, there was no point in visiting even if I'dve had the time. It's hell living in the sticks isn't it?

The Ikea location in Ottawa is perfect in that you can drop off the shopper in the family and go for a short walk across the parking lots to a brew pub.

Across the road from the one in Etobicoke there's a rub and tug.

I think the map is 1/30 scale? So about ten or fifteen minutes between LA and LV. They've got most of Europe covered, but have only just started on America, and I guess they need to make the map small enough that you can drive across the whole thing in one session. I saw a Youtube video of someone driving their simulated truck across Europe and it was about three hours long. |

The "Big Rig" place? Yes, been there. Post Ikea shopping.
To: dbd33. Obviously as he is living in a world class city such as Toronto, the diversion of a rub and tug near Ikea trumps a mere brew pub in a second class provincial backwater like Ottawa. |

Is there a parent on here...probably from the East, who doesn't start to hate the six week window between the last snow and the end of school and the enormous amounts of activities that get shoved into them? :eek: Roll on the end of school year! |

Rib Fest for me too...I'm doing the can and bottle recycling, for cadets, but it will be fun, the parents are great and the kids get to eat their own bodyweight in ribs...and see drunken pretty girls in little clothing:blink: they love it all!
