Good luck.

Re: 5 weeks waiting return of Passports with Visas! Help!

If my memory serves me right, that was about how long we had to wait for ours to come back. So hopefully it should arrive soon. Don't think there is any need to panic (yet!).

Re: Cornish Pasties in Toronto?

Hope you get the answer you are looking for, although reading some of the other previous posts it looks like the Canadians wouldn't know what "Cornish" was. I wasn't aware there was such a thing as...

Re: Cornish Pasties in Toronto?

Would a ruling made in the EU extend to Canada? Maybe you can call them Cornish Pasties over there, I don't know. Might be worth investigating further if you decide on the venture? Was brought up in...

Re: PS3s and DVDs compatibility question

I think it may depend what size hard drive you want. I don't think the 240gb is available in Canada, only the 160gb - but I am sure someone will tell me if this is incorrect.
