Hi All. Sorry I haven't updated my blog in a while. To be honest the reason for this is because I've not done a great deal since being in B.C! I spent a few days last week chilling with Kay and Wil in Vancouver which was nice and relaxed as I was beginning to get tired of site seeing! Wil took me on a walking day around the city and we spotted a wild bald eagle (puts Red Kites to shame!). We also took a taxi boat across the river to Granville Island. This ...

Today is my last full day in Toronto and I've had a fantastic time this week. Got a city pass which has given me 6 attractions to get my bum out of bed for and to go and see for $11 each. This included Toronto Zoo - It's got lots of animals, you know the kind, the Science Museum - so much fun, felt like a kid again although we didn't stay long enough, the Natural History Museum - enjoyed it very much but Oxford's is better, Casa Loma - a castle and museum which...

My most memerable moments of the week are - Tuesday - Going to a dodgy Irish Pub for St. Paddy's Day with Kristen and Brad and getting f...

Hi, So my flight was good, didn't sleep a wink, however did manage to watch three movies. Was sat next to the eastern European face twin of Steve Buscemi (crazy eyes!) which was great fun, so the only conversation I managed to have was to answer the food related questions the flight attendent occasionally threw my way... 'Chicken or Lamb?' and 'would you like a drink?' etc. Took about an hour to get though customs - They've got all my prints now and scanned my...
