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

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?

What? Splash before July 4? What's come over you?

What's so special about July 4??

It's independance day in these United States of course.


So...what's that got to do with me?

Just a reference to a point in time.

BTW.. it isn't all play....... the fleets conducted naval exercises before
coming here to help us celebrate.
We also get to check out a couple of supply ships that we may be interested
in. USS Fort George is one example and an interesting ship from Denmark.
Ours are approaching 50 years old.

One more item.
The Tattoo will also be celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the navy.
Originally, the Queen was supposed to open it, but there was a big kerfuffle
about a staircase she would have to climb.
mmm wonder if she was talking to The Freak?

Hey...that would hold JustHate's house eight times, right? And leave
room to park the motorcycle.

Flajim lives in one of those house trailer lots you read about in
Florida...the ones that get flattened by hurricanes.

That doesn't leave much room to throw those elbows around. What would it
take to make you feel confined?
