A week in the life....

Just thought i'd stick a few pictures on the page from the last week or so. A couple from Algonquin, although i am sure there will be many more to come.. one of Andy from the UK, who arrived over to work with us on Sat, his first day was Monday so we took him out for his birthday.. and of course the obligatory celebratory pictures from London after England finally beat the Aussies. I almost felt homesick! Almost. I'm glad the cricket is over. At least now i can concentrate on doing proper work. As for my Canadian colleagues, they will be spared any more conversation on the topic. Poor Danny will be relieved. At Niagara, which started the day after England won the 4th test, we were discussing the finish to the game. "Holy Shit - are they still talking about cricket?", to which Dave (Canadian, but he 'understands' the game) replied "Well the games last 5 days, so you have to expect them to discuss it for 2.."

To Canadians who neither like nor understand cricket, my apologies.
The two best banners - "Aussies Exterminated" and "Ashes to ashes, Aussies to dust".

Roll on the winter olympics. The Canadians and I can diiscuss curling as team GB attempts to defend its gold medal, whilst Canada attempts to defend the hockey one.
