Re: Confused.. Why Canada?

Well then I suppose you have the income to support going to Spain on all your days off, why bother moving there?

Re: Confused.. Why Canada?

I'm not so sure about that. One of my children worked her gap year between Geneva (Swiss citizen thanks to her mother) and Dijon (EU citizen thanks to me) and loved Dijon. I think she'd be there now...

Re: Confused.. Why Canada?

So where do you think a bright Briton keen to see the world, fluent in Italian or French, talented in some skill, carpentry, accounting or computing, for example, should go?

Re: Confused.. Why Canada?

If he's in Toronto why couldn't he just visit Filmores and then stroll down to Queen? Think of Bob Hoskins looking gobsmacked at Paddington in Mona Lisa and you'll have an idea of my Toronto.

Re: Confused.. Why Canada?

Living gets in the way. University education, maybe fifty grand a throw, times two. Disabled child requiring support, I dunno, a couple of grand a month. Divorce, total cost probably $750,000 and...

Re: Confused.. Why Canada?

It's cold here today, never above freezing. The foot of unheated bit at the end of our hose froze so I had to cut it back to the same length as the heating wire. There you go, things you didn't know,...

Re: Confused.. Why Canada?

I dunno. Of my four failed marriage/common law relationships weight gain was a major factor in the end of two of them. The problem is that, as one gets older and poorer, the ability to acquire...

Re: Confused.. Why Canada?

Well yes but she hasn't noticeably expanded since yesterday when you thought 7lbs could be lived with. Are you now saying that the 7lbs would certainly be too much for you?

Re: Confused.. Why Canada?

Half a stone, not a lot? My, I thought you were a sound judge of the female form, now you're saying that 20% of volume either way doesn't matter? I think you're a great deal more flab tolerant then I...

And have room to keep horses. You may recall that I previously lived in the Beach and, before that, downtown.



I know all those places and couldn't afford even five acres in any of them (well...

We certainly are going. I doubt it's Adrian's sort of thing though, I've never seen an Eastern European at her house.

Re: Confused.. Why Canada?

Never seen it. Some Sunday mornings I shuffled along to watch "Big Screen Coronation Street" because they opened the bar for it and there's not much else going on in Toronto of a weekend.

Sadly,...

If you mean "do I exercise, eat carefully, visit doctors" Good God, no. Nothing honey is more flaming than membership of a gym.

Re: Confused.. Why Canada?

I don't think that's the case. I lived with a much older woman for five years or so and...

I live with a woman who is a little over half my age, barely older than my children, she's...

Re: Confused.. Why Canada?

If you mean Mick J then I don't know why he was banned but his suggestion of a waterfall in Hamilton as a place for a day out was helpful to me. I liked the place, it shifted my attitude to Hamilton.

Re: Confused.. Why Canada?

I doubt this is true, the proposed Blue Card will be as difficult to obtain as a Green one.



This is plainly not true, boatloads of people drown every year trying to reach fortress Europe.
