We will definately be up for getting together, although sleepy is away for the first part of the time you are here, but I am sure we can sort something out to meet up with you two and others. Happy for you Mrs. X

Considering all of the UK fits inside of Ontario alone, I would say us Canadians don't think it is very far to travel between on end of Britian to the other.

It tends to get a bit expensive. Surely a mutual meeting place can be organised that will be best for all. Oh, this is so exciting!!!! Mrs. X

Actually I think Ontario is much bigger, I heard once that Britian can actually fit into Ontario three times, but I dont know if that is correct or not. I am pretty sure it fits in at least once with room to grow I find this often though, for me driving from Edinburgh to my boat in Skye and back in one day is dueable, but for a lot of people here it would have to be a weekend event. I guess we are just used to big roads and long distances between major cities and dont think twice about it

[/b] Mrs. X, assuming I'm in the UK at some time during your visit I will pop over for a meet - I can also take you further afield should some of the others not be able to make it to Stevenage. Paul.

Oi, just remember that size isn't everything and that it's what you do with what you've got that means that you do whatever or something... Anyway, most of your lot speak French so you can't be that hard. © Stereotypes r us

Paul. Thanks, Paul! But people don't necessarily have to come to us, we can go to them, too! It's just that if we're travelling by train, we don't want to go too far across the country as it gets a bit expensive. But I do appreciate the offer of a lift. And it would be great to meet you if you're back in the UK by then! Mrs. X

I know Sassy's not much older than me, so perhaps she went through the same horror of being forced to take French all through school. :p I, personally, was never bilingual, and have lost a lot of what I learnt over the years, so I can say quite proudly that I do not speak French!! (Well, not a lot of it, anyway...) Mrs. X

SlowMo' Pass level: Access All Areas Registered: Thu, 11 Jul 2002 20:00:00 Posts: 793 Loc: West Sussex	Quote: By the way, Si, I'm inclined to agree with Sassy on this one. Canada is about 1,000,000 times larger than all of the UK, so we wouldn't think too much about travelling through a small part of it (England). Mrs. X Yep but you have to remember how Shite the motorways in the UK can be - the easiest journey turns into an odyssey!!

Oh I know how that is! I've been there before! A five minute taxi ride turns out to be almost half an hour. (Can't remember where we were going at the time.) I have never seen so much traffic before in my life!! Mrs. X
