    Ooh thats good. Remember them worrying about levels when they won the Olympic bid.

    Where abouts in Whistler are you? I used to stay at Glaciers Reach from time to time. Hottub outside each apartment :)

    Ooh i remember Blueberry off the 99. You emigrated or just temporary visa? We got our citizenship back in 02. I would love to return, to tell you the truth, but i dont know if i could handle all that shipping again! We will one day... would like to spend the summers in Penticton.

    Yea, Whistler would be lotto win and retirement. Hard to believe it can hit high 30's in summer. Good luck mate and enjoy. Have a pint of Grasshopper outside the Amsterdam for me.
