Exciting week for anyone interested in naval affairs.

CoolQ I don't know anythign about Canadian politics or prime
ministers, but I hope he has some good words of encouragement
to the
crew. Same way with Lizzie. I'm suprised she can still get
around.

Yes. the British Prime Minister did thank the crew for
representing Britain
at the fleet Review 100th Anniversary of the Canadian Navy this
weekend.
I understand this Saturday is some kind of armed forces day over
there.http://halifaxifr.ca/en/home/tabid/61/default.aspx

Don, I noticed the link said:

Ship tours schedule announced

"During the IFR several foreign and Canadian ships will be open for
tours including the HMS ARK ROYAL and USS WASP. Visit the ship tours
schedule for more info...."


You going to go take a look around?

Normally I avoid crowds...but this might be worthwhile.
If the weather is good (and the reports are favourable) I wouldn't
mind doing my own little review of the fleet in the Princecraft
Yukon.
Agoraphobic?

No phobia.... just like lots of elbow room.
That's one of the things I like about this province...less than a
million people in total.
In fact, the four Atlantic Provinces all together only total about 2
million people.

So why are you squashed together into 3000SF house lots?


Duh!
It's 4000 sq ft house lots........... what do you expect in the center
of a major city?

It that the size of your house or your lot? 4000 sq ft would be a tiny
lot but a respectable house.
