Hahahahaha. I loved the part where you accused other people of being old right before saying, "join in with us 50 odd years olds." Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.

Yes. It's one of those program-able kinds. Really neat, too. I figured out the distance from Vancouver to Montreal. It's 61,429 miles by air.

Figured it had to be something like that. LOL. I'm almost afraid to ask: are you planning to fly from Vancouver to Montreal (or vice versa) soon? Aren't new toys fun?

No, Lin. But it was less distance to fly than from Edmonton to Montreal which my trust calculator tells me is over 681,329 miles. Sheesh. Flying all that way, I may as well go to the moon and back.

Happy New Year to you, Lin. Hope Santa was good to you.

In England, we all sincerely hope Her Majesty won't use the expression again in her Christmas message to the nation I can only assume it was something Prince Charles picked up in Australia from some of the coarse types that he chooses to mix with. No doubt, the young shaver passed it onto Her Majesty as a jape.

Prince Philip's attempt to distract the nation by juggling with three live corgis was much more in keeping with the festive spirit of the occasion.
