I wonder who's idea it was to move to Canada

Oh, Vancouver really is a joke when it snows ............ though I must admit that 15-20 cm of fine powdery snow in one night is more than we usually get!

OH said it was much lighter to shovel than our usual kind.

I haven't actually been out in the cold (got a tricky back at the moment so I didn't want to slip and make it worse), but OH has (except for today) ..... he said it was bitterly cold, and had very cold hands to show for it, despite wearing gloves!

Are you sure you wouldn't like it????

Hope you're coping with the snow....don't send too much our way or the cold :-D

Caroline ............

thank you for that link. I'd heard about the Globe and Mail's commentary and was going to look for it.

It's well phrased, I think.

Back to this thread...seems 73% of Canadians don't want to pay for their security so as Sylvia says it could make the Government fall if they try and force it on to us .

"There is someone on another Thread saying remarks about this Thread it has got nothing to do with them any way shape or form get yourself a life mind your own business"


Barbra .............. the other thread has nothing to do with you.

They are entitled to say what they want, just as you are .................. let them alone.

Barbara if you believe in free speech why comment on what someone has said on another thread :-S :-S :-S :-)

Posted again because saw remarks about this Thread by one person The fires in Australia are absolutely shocking so many lives lost. Animals Tennis players have donated their time to raise funds don't think it will ever be sorted not in my life time total devastation God Love & protect all involved <3

I just wish that the press et al would leave US alone.

I'm heartily sick of seeing nothing in the news outlets but this couple. Even the catastrophic bush fires over here now seem to be playing second fiddle to the 'main' event. :-| :-|

There is someone on another Thread saying remarks about this Thread it has got nothing to do with them any way shape or form get yourself a life mind your own business :-)

Oh well this Thread keeps getting post.s sometimes interesting items do get post not just shopping trips walking the dog what interesting lives we do have . Taking car for MOT Thursday must go watching Coronation Street Happy Days xx :-D

Kay I didn't say the phrase "Internationally Protected Persons" was relevant to H & M's security , but that the phrase exists ( and I think a senior police person should at least be able to use Google quite as well as I can surely ?!)

Kay ...................


the snow might make it easier for spies ..................... wear white coveralls and sneak around.

All northern countries have their armies practise such subterfuge ;-)

What's the betting that court case will end in a settlement out of court with all details subject to non-disclosure???

If it gets any deeper Sylvia it will keep un-wanted spys away.. :-D :-D


The famous Letter,,,,,,,,No one knew anything about it till Thomas Markle contacted the press as a -reveal all ,thinking it would buy him a ticket but its back fired on him and the press,as they also had the option not to print it out of some resepct even for Harrys sake.,,,,,,,and should have sent TM away with a flea in his ear for even showing them a personal letter.

"7. Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Crimes against Internationally Protected Persons, including Diplomatic Agents
New York, 14 December 1973"

But its only Prevention,Punishment and Crimes,


,,,,Not general personal protection

Harry has a duty to partake in this country tomorrow that is why he has not returned. I wonder how much money Megan's father has been paid by the paper to testify

Now her Father is to testify against her. what a family, Is this marriage on the rocks, Harry hasn't rushed to rejoin Meghan.

Perhaps Prince Harry wanted to do the meeting by himself.

Whatever they do they are in the wrong according to some news reports. (Well Meghan is )

I have no real interest in whether they stay or go, they are the ones that have to live with their choice. I do think that they should pay their own way in some form.
If they think media coverage will stop because they move countries they could be mistaken.
