(Still a Canadian at heart - shall phone Mum in the Niagara Pen. tonight to wish her a happy one!) sian P.S. 'Pen' as in Peninsula. Not as in The Pen. She's 81 and taken to slot machines, but it hasn't got that bad. Yet. |

14 Oct 02 - 12:41 PM (#802873) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving fellow Canucks From: Peter T. Jack, what are you doing on the Internet (not to put too fine a point on it?) The Thanksgiving weather here in T.O. is perfect, cold, crisp, sunny. I think our American colleagues should rethink the end of November for theirs, it is always dismal and cold, and far too close to Christmas. yours, Peter T. |

15 Oct 02 - 07:25 AM (#803417) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving fellow Canucks From: Mooh Well, I'm a day late and a dollar short but Happy Thanksgiving anyway! Spent most of the weekend nursing a sore foot and shoulder, but managed to visit with the family. Mom made it home from the nursing home for several hours and gloried in being in her real home. There was a sad undercurrent of emotion, this being our first family gathering without my sister Barb, but we will struggle on. The sun shone on the autumn colours of the Bruce Peninsula and reminded us that sometimes we should be thankful for eternal things too. God Bless, Mooh. |

15 Oct 02 - 07:54 AM (#803435) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving fellow Canucks From: sian, west wales Pooka: another LOL, although the laugh had to be unintentional on your part. "Going to the Pen." in my home town means going to the Pen Centre shopping mall. Which is where my mother goes to spend her winnings! Hate to think what happens to The Inheritance if she gets to spend a whole year there! sian |

The secret is to get out and rock the car out of the ice patch, rather than putting your foot down on the accelerator. yours, Peter |
