Re: Happy Canada Day
LOL, you just beat me to it! This was next on my "To-do list" this morning.
HAPPY CANADA DAY!!!
I'll be taking the afternoon off (leaving at NOON) and going down the CELEBRATE Canada Day at Trafalgar Square in Central London: http://www.canadadaylondon.com/ . This will be our 3rd Canada Day at Trafalgar Square celebration, last year it was the 2nd biggest outside of Canada (1st biggest is in the USA).
Welcome to Canada Day in London 2011
Join us in Trafalgar Square on Friday 1 July 2011 for the largest Canada Day celebration outside Canada’s borders. Thousands of Canadians and friends of Canadians will gather to join in the festivities and celebrate the country’s 144th birthday.
2011 promises to be even bigger and better with more cultural activities, more food and drink from across Canada and a great new line-up of music and entertainment. Whether it’s watching the coveted Trafalgar Cup street hockey tournament, sampling uniquely Canadian food and drink or rocking out to some of Canada’s finest bands, this event is jam packed with exciting activities and performances for everyone.

Happy Canada Day!
One of my coworkers is originally from Canada, with a dual citizenship now. She informed many of us yesterday that she expects presents today.

Re: Happy Canada Day EH!
So much for my Canada Ride. Bike is acting up, losing power, surging in the mid range revs, no roll on power even with the throttle pinned all the way back. She been fine for the past couple of months while I been commuting daily, never a hick up or a hesitation, dry or wet, hot or cold, just kept on purring on and on.....but it seems as soon as I decide to go for a fun ride, some me time in the saddle, she goes and throws a wobbly at me.
The only difference between today and yesterday, was I gave her a scrub down so she would be all pretty. Last time I had symptoms like these, it turned out to be a faulty coil, and she was only firing on two cylinders...so tomorrow I will run down to the shop to see if they can have a quick look see and fit a new coil on.
As for my new Canada Day celebrations, I guess I will just tidy up at home and do my laundry. At least the new Torchwood season airs tonight, something to look forward to and d/l.

We haven't invaded her homeland to punish those Canadian World Domination* upstarts yet; what further present could she possibly require??zee wrote:Happy Canada Day!
