Hey look, it’s full of Canadians…
And so clean. Seriously. Everyone said Canada’s gorgeous; and quite a few people mentioned the cleanliness of it, but being here, it’s freaky-clean. It’s so nice. I just don’t see the little clumps of rubbish, the bags collected under the trees. It’s just so much cleaner than the UK. And the trains – they’re clean…

Post follows tomorrow
I just had a really good day. I’ve got some pictures, but I’m not awake enough to post anything. Just thought I’d say to all the ‘you should do stuff now you’re in Canada’ types, I’ve done stuff :-) Raaar. Now, I sleep.

I’m in Canada!
I tried to think of a more ‘sensible’ title to this, but frankly, that expresses it all. I am in Canada… Specifically, right at this moment I’m sat in Rochelle’s lounge, at her dining table, eating some of the food she left for me… I’ve nipped out to the store once, but I’ll probably repeat…

not exactly what I needed…
So, the day before going to Canada I get the ‘correct’ alternator for my car, only because they’re too damn cheap to include a pulley, you need to take the pulley off the old one. I was very tired, so tired. My back hurts. My body is tired. It’s cold. And I’m bent over, arms…

I do what with this now?
I’ve been pondering a journal entry. This is odd for me, as you’ve all no doubt noticed I tend to ponder journal entries while writing them, hence my inimitable rambly tedious style. This is more a space for me to think outloud than anything more serious. Sometimes you’ll get serious – but mostly because I…

I need my FIX!
So, here I am at CC&K, I’ve just paid for a subscription to their wireless internet, which although not insanely cheap is certainly not an unacceptable expense, and gives me more of an excuse to hang out here, although my laptop weighs a bloody ton. Even more if I had two batteries… like I ordered……

No X-ray vision?! What am I paying for?
So, I got my valuation back today, and I’m happy to say that they are happy with the house valuation and the price I’ve offered. I’ve also got my solicitor’s letter too. So, that’s all going to wing it’s way off this afternoon. But the surveyor’s report revealed something astounding: Well, what am I paying…

OMG – Giant Insect Threatens Germany…
Linky to picture. Yeah, on a more serious note I hate packing. With avengence. Part of the problem is I’m down to bitty bits, and I have been for a while. They are both hard to pack and hard to get the enthusiasm to pack. I just find myself wanting to say ‘oh for fuck’s…

Arrrrrrr. My back!
I’ve actually had a really positive day. I posted off my prescription so that it should be ready for collection before I head off, I’ve sorted out my tools – my toolbox is so neat I nearly took a photo to share with you all – yes, I really was that amazed. I’ve thrown out,…

Accepted…
The offer was accepted on the house. Watch me try not to count chickens.
