Re: Canadian Neighbours

Finally, the only note of what used to be neighbourliness. Evidently I had too much faith in human nature and doing unto others etc etc. Guess I shouldn't ever have bothered to take care of my...

Re: How does this country survive?

You have to read through the replies, it's the most entertaining thread we've had in a long time. And I've learned a lot about doggie behaviour too!
