gordon s Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Here's hoping this is just a minor blip, Debs. He's in the best place and being cared for by knowledgable people, so he'll be fine.... I'm sure he'll get a big hug once he gets home. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted April 3, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 3, 2013 Morning (Mountain Time) all. Just read your news Debs, i too hope you get some positive news soon. I shall post some photos, it may have to wait until we get home. The plan for today is (weather permitting) to drive towards Mt Robson. Tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium 45156 Posted April 3, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 3, 2013 Evening All Caught up = no news from Debs about Porthos, so I'll just add my best wishes that all is well. We all go through it with our animals, as witnessed by the support on here for any ailing pets, be the equine, feline, canine, or any other sort - so whatever the news, we're here to offer a cyber shoulder for you. It's now Wednesday, and the promised car return for last Thursday hasn't materialised - each day there's been a promise of "tomorrow" and it's starting to grate a bit. Yesterday it was "yes it's just about rebuilt, we'll call in the morning with a delivery time". Today it was "when it was rebuilt, the boss wasn't happy with the clearance on the tailgate, and he's failed it at final inspection - it's got to go back on the jig to be realigned". So we got a call late this afternoon to say that it's all sorted, but all the transporters are out so it's going to arrive first thing tomorrow. Sun has been shining here all day, but still bloomin' parky. Anyhow, dinner's ready, and Lily wants her walk, so I'll shoot for now. However, before I do, I noticed that we've reached over 990 thousand posts here - shall we have a virtual sweep on when the millionth post will materialise - first prize is an hour of reading ERs and the second prize is two hours.

RMweb Premium 45156 Posted April 3, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 3, 2013 It's not Hornby doing it is it Stewart? Might as well be - though I'm told that their quality control is very strict - as it might be, their main franchises are Porsche, Mercedes, and the like, and I believe that they apply the same standards that these makers apply to repairs to all makes, even my humble Fiesta - so I think it's going to be a good job - should be, they've had the car three weeks tomorrow. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted April 4, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 4, 2013 I noticed there is a plinthed steam engine outside Jasper train station (that is what it is called in this town!) . I will take some photos before we leave. This morning we went from AB to BC. Nice drive but everything is still closed for the winter. Helpful signage to assist travellers, informing one that the nearest heated eastbound toilet facilities are 66km away. This really is a very pleasant part of the world to spend an Easter break in. Locals tell us we would like early September too but that will have to wait until Aditi retires. Pete mentioned that perhaps a 6 cylinder Jeep Liberty would have suited us better in Canada. I looked under the "hood" as I believe it is called here and it claims to be a V6. I notice that people with 4x4s here don't seem to have them fitted with ultra low profile tyres.

Regards to All Stewart Very much hoping that no news is good news as far as Debs's boy is concerned. There was a programme on 't'wireless a while ago about the business of insurance repairs taking too long so that the hire car fees mount up. Guess what? raised premiums all round.

travelintrev Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Morning all, I see no news from Debs about her lad.....fingers crossed eh? Tony, I've got to agree with the locals, September there is cracking, mind you some of the local population can be just a touch greedy! The little chap in the photo, eventually emptied that pot of blue berries. Filled his face, ran off & returned 10 minutes later for another load. Repeated till all were safely stashed for the winter! Be good to day folks, Trev 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium NGT6 1315 Posted April 4, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 4, 2013 Morning all... Still sleepy, but I hope a cup of coffee will be able to remedy this. Will need to be headed for the library today, but aside from revising, that will be the only major task. Have a good one, everyone... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold grandadbob Posted April 4, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 4, 2013 Good Morning All, Dry & 1oC with a cloudy cold day forecast & possible wintry showers. Great!! Today I have to put my "domestic" hat on with both housework & re-supply of essential (& non-essential) victuals as we seem to have another houseful of guests from tomorrow for a couple of days.

Robert Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Morning All, It is another cold one here - apparently Spring is due to arrive around the middle of next week. I certainly hope so! Have a good day everyone... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
