Have a wonderful birthday! And while I'm at it, Happy New Year too. May it brings you health and happiness.

Thank you for the rep db today and your note about Diva and the way your baby is...
I will not give up. I am not one who gives up easy.... I am going to win a trip from Q!!!
This after noon Diva came into my office and went around and around my chair...
I escorted her out and she looked at me and lay down on her back.... with her paws in the air. I went to pet her head.... She hissed and scratched my hand....
She is testing me....
I hope you have an excellent weekend!

Your Divo reminds me of my Kira. Doesn't liked to be picked up (meows like we're torturing her when we pick her up); runs the other way when we get a brush out; and no purring. Well, she does pur, but so low it's almost inaudible. I do feel her vibrate. Oh, and yes, she just loves to lick hands and feet

Hey there db! Thank you foe rhew rep!
I found these new Crunchie clusters at a store in Brockville.
Similar to what I had been looking for only they put cornflakes in these and a touch too many! Oh well!
Enjoy the rest of your Caturday my friend!

I wondered about the countdown too as I posted. I didn't know there was a vote. Maybe only certain Q members go to vote
Not sure when I am heading to Montreal next....so many things ongoing here....
You leave this weekend for Paris. Have a safe flight and trip...

No, he was too busy to visit I'm heading to Montreal for Thanksgiving weekend, so I'll see him than.

What's up with that countdown? Almost all the songs that should be in the top 20 have already been played. It sounds like a lot of 80s music has moved up the list... Interesting is one word for it

You do not have much time to relax....
Enjoy your time at home.....!

My twin brother is talking about driving down (or rather his two girls would like to come). He's hesitant because too busy at the office. If he's not coming, I'll just relax at home. I'm leaving next week Thursday for Paris (10 days stay), and will be heading to Vancouver last week of September, so it will be a tiring month.

That is bizarre. For our trip to Mexico I asked if we had a balcony.... She could not guarantee it. We did in the end..... and we were seated in a row of 5 across and 3 across and I was in the middle both time.... good thing I am not tall...I wonder what currency the 5000 is in... Pesos?

The flight thing is a bit annoying. They say the suggested retail price of the win is $5,000, yet they would not pay the $820 Air Canada fare (the only direct flight). The hotel is nice, but it's still only $160/night, so Air Canada fare + 3 nights hotel + $200 tickets (x2) = $2,500. So because American Airlines is cheaper, that's what they proposed to me: Toronto - Chicago - New Orleans - Dallas - Toronto. Instead of 3 hours trip, 6 hours trip. I ended paying the difference to get the direct flight ($175pp). I don't mind, I'm hoping I can use my upgrade certificate to fly business, and I have access to the Lounge. With American Airlines, I'm nobody... Not that I'm complaining about winning or anything

You sound like my hubby and I only we didn't bother to enter.
We thought if we entered and won we would see New Orleans.... then I read that you do not have a direct flight? What is with that?

Bravo my friend!~ I am so happy for you!
I have not yet been to New Orleans.... I can't wait to your photos...
BTW...Thanks for the rep!

How a good trip And please bring back the warmth...

Hello
Work was absolutely brutal when I got back to the office. And weekends have been busy... Cruise was great, hoping to post some pics later this week...

You are so sweet my friend. Those Crunchie nuggets are now called Crunchie pieces or something like that.... My stepson brought my Dairy mild with Crunchie mixed in...
it is wondeerful. Have a safe trip!

Hi

I know you've been going through a rough patch, with your daugther's health, your father-in-law, your work... Well, I'm seating in Heathrow right now, and I got you some comfort food: a bag a bit-sized Crunchie...

Good to see you around once again!!!!
Thanks for the rep and good luck today!!!

Glad to hear you're OK. I managed to total my sport cars when I was younger, and walked away with 2 small scars. My car did not manage to avoid the tree...

Happy Birthday!!!

Thank for the rep.... the local stations here are mostly Corus, but the prizes.... for the most part are not anything I would be interested in....

My company is the same more or less. They now close between Christmas and New Year, only we have to use our vacation days for it.... My mom wants us in Mtl.... Lots to do here and driving takes a long while... we shall see...

Yeah, we get Christmas day and boxing day. Thank goodness, they fall on Saturday and Sunday, so we get Monday and Tuesday instead. That gives me enough time for a quick trip to Montreal. We're taking the train on the 25th in the morning, coming back on the 27th. Short and brutal trip, but we get to have Christmas dinner as a family in Montreal. We celebrate with my wife's family on the 24th.

Thank you for repping me db.... Is your company giving you time off over Christmas?

Awe, poor you... That can't be so much fun so often.... Do they ever give you a break?

Thanks for the rep db..... now you have to work on the next one....

Thank you so much for the rep db. I am happy to see you around once again....
xoxoxo

Happy Halloween mon ami!

Hi, tks for the compliment. Yes, that two weeks trip in September really put me behind the black ball, and I've been trying to catch up since than. Should be busy right through early January. I hope to get back on the board before than...

Happy Thanksgiving my friend

I can understand that, though I have travelled on my own many times!
I have friends in Paris and I hope to visit them before long. When we go to visit my stepson in London, we will make arragenments to vist Marie-France and her family!
You are there for the entire week?
