My last "Canadian" post

This one might just be the last one I post from Canada. Just because I am horrendously busy, and I have until 5pm to give this computer in.... at this point, and with one or two big events still to come, I am not sure I am in a position to try and summarise what I have made of my experience here.. Sunday promises to be a great climax, and I might just need a few days 'come down' to really reflect on what my first experience of this wonderful country has been like. I am encouraged that, with just over 48 hours until I fly, it still feels hugely positive. I dont, and wouldnt have expected anything else...

So i will refrain from the philosophical splurge for the time being. Instead I shall wish Rory a very happy 25th birthday, as well as congratulating him on getting a distinction in his masters in translation. Clever clogs, arent you? Well done buddy.

And having just got an invite from Ticketmaster to purchase Take That tickets this spring, i will reflect on the lyrics of one of their songs, as i prepare to log off and head back towards what Johnny calls the 'mother ship'.

So, trying to reflect on an experience like this...

"Never forget where you've come here from. Never pretend its all real. Someday soon, this will all be someone else's dream"..

When i wake up from my dreams (i've not slept in 36 hours..) I will have plenty more to say I am sure. For now Canada, thank you. The next time I write, it'll be from home.
