Re: wanting to move to Canada soon

Re: Revelstoke or Banff & Canmore

I would stop off in Lake Louise. Rent a mountain bike from the sports store in Samson Mall; depending on when you are there, you can take it up to the Moraine Lake and freewheel down, great fun!

Re: who else skied sunshine today??

Yes D.O., I saw that it's not been the best so far. Fingers crossed! We have had a run of bad luck so hopefully this trip will be good: will have 2 15 year olds in tow so they should be fun!!!

Re: Help - Timmys won't hire me!

Loki's point is good (as is the other advice). In North America, resumes tend to be a lot more self-promotional than in the UK, which might not come easily, it didn't to me at first. They also like...

Re: Filing taxes for the first time

Go get a personal tax software package (eg Quicktax), enter the numbers when prompted and then print out the finished forms, and send them in (hopefully without a cheque). That's what I do, anyway :).

Re: recce trip... internet at rented cottage?

Just plug it into your ethernet port and away you go.

If you want wifi, you can buy a cheap router for about $50.

Have a nice trip,
