Replied to your PM,

See ya all soon.

Just popped into the Irving here in Lincoln for some scoff and jump on this terminal for a wee while.

Snow on the ground here now in Quebec last night and in New Brunswick. Seems to have cleared the further east I go but made my first Canadian snow ball last night at the top of Hwy185 as I stopped for a pee (too much info I know) just got a bit worried if there were any bears around as I saw one along from there a few weeks ago...

See you soon and have a good trip.

I know SORRY pretty poor of me and am guilty as charged. Back home now after a run down to Blenhiem in Ontario, all going well until Sat morning then my whole insides decided to leave me from both ends !!!! I'll spare you the rest of the details, totaly drained now. I used the washrooms so much in St Antonin they gave me a free shower...

I'll try and get some Piccies up over nest couple of days... Of my travels not the vomiting...

Good luck Taff. Hope it all goes well for you. Bulk seem a good choice, I've not found or heard of any bad reports from other drivers.
