[QUOTE=recycledsixtie;370907]Sidetracking the thread here but I think that you and I Mark live in good places. Heard this morning that Vancouver is the most congested city to drive in in North America. More so than LA, New York. Who would have thought? If I lived in Vanvouver that would drive me to buying a tiptronic.....
That's what they get for stealing our film industry!

Earthquakes are for other people to worry about, and it would have to be a whopper of a tsunami to make it 1500 miles overland from the nearest ocean. I can live with a few months of snow - seems to be a pretty mild price to pay for living in what is probably one of the safest places on the planet.

But, Winnipeg has the "Saddest Music in the World".

Nor does he have that 1983 Linda Blair classic, Chained Heat!
And yet he claims to be a prison movie buff...
(Other classics also missing from the list: Midnight Express, Shawshank Redemption, Green Mile, Cool Hand Luke, Get the Gringo... the list goes on)

Yep they are sending back the crooks that are surplus to their needs. Please don't ship them to Canada. We have got all the baddies we can handle.....

All the ones I know that go to the UK seem to be bankers. So yes, I suppose that confirms your point that it is the crooks that we are repatriating to Mother England.

Over-run........I think not !!
There's a grand total of about 20 million Australians around this world (not enough I know, but) which is less than the population of some of the larger cities.
And yes we work in bars 'cos the beer is cheap and we tend to drink a lot. And then we take all the best looking women away from the Poms as part payment for the poor grog....

Yeah, however it's all the women moaning that it's the Ozzies going home with all the good looking men.
All the pubs sell Fosters unfortunately.
