    Back online...live from Manitoba!

    Been offline for a bit while we made the big move from Alberta to rural Manitoba. The move went well, although we're still unpacking some boxes and setting up the various rooms in the house.

    Someone in charge of the weather must have discovered that I was moving back to Manitoba, as the temps dropped the closer we got! It was about -5C when we left Calgary last Sunday, and by the time we arrived in Neepawa it had dropped to -29C! This weekend the windchill temps were in the -40 range. Woohoo...welcome home!

    I finally got my kilts and stuff unpacked today, but we stayed in the house due to the cold (and the fact I've been glued to the TV most of the day watching the Barrett-Jackson auction. LOL)

    At any rate...I'm back online, although I probably won't be spending quite as much time on the computer as I used to. Catch ya'll soon!

    Welcome back Al! Glad to hear that everything went well.


    Brrrrr. You'd better order yourself an electric kilt warmer.

    So - Does the new place have a high speed connection? - or are you now forced to dial-up?

    Also - truthfully now - How many boxes have you not unpacked?

    I'm glad the move went well and that everything & everyone arrived safe and sound. You should remember Manitoba January weather... if not, well you have just been reintroduced!

    Send me a PM when you're planning any trips into the 'Peg and maybe we can meet up for a couple pints.

    As long as he's unpacked the boxes with the kilts and the liquor what does it matter?

    -40 Al? is that in celsius or farenheit? Oh wait they're the same at that temperature! Hope you did unpack that booze. So is Manitoba a stop off before you come to a man's province (the one that's one over on the right)?
