    Siting on a snow covered highway in Canada because the semi at the front decided not to put chains on. RCMP just walked past, so looks like there’ll be trouble!

      I know DriveBC! We visit our son in Nelson regularly and consult that website before every journey - for snow conditions in winter and wildfires in summer 🤨.

       

      Enjoy Tofino. It’s a few years since we’ve been there - we should go back sometime soon.

      Ah, we had a break in, and a whole load of rubbish and nastiness across a few different threads about 7am your time. Andy was quick off the mark. :)

    Nothing says "I love you" more than 80lb of dog leaping onto your chest first thing in the morning.
