I know, i know, i've been quiet. Gym, work, slogging through the days, counting down the sleeps. Still have some last minute things to pick up. My return flight was changed and now i have to fly Manchester-Heathrow-Toronto-Halifax, flying 2 hours further west from home to turn around and fly 2 hours back again. Long day. Apparently i'm in row 54. 54!! And there;s 63 rows of seats! That's one big mofo of a plane! Probably be heaving with people too. *sigh*

But three weeks from today we'll be in Copenhagen and we're looking forward to that quite a bit.

Meanwhile i'm in another mobile phone quandary again. The battery in mine is slowly going. I have to charge it every few days. I got another battery off ebay but it's no better than the other one. Got gypped i guess. Didn't cost a lot so i'm not that upset. It's just annoying. Plus i've never been happy with Rogers coverage here in Canada so i think i'll change to a different company, probably Bell or Virgin as they have the best coverage. Was looking around. What really is frustrating is that pay as you go customers get very little choice of phones unless you want to pay hundreds of dollars. I don't need a lot of bells and whistles but a few would be nice. Anyway, i've seen one or two i like at Virgin so i might go that way and keep my old phone just for when i'm in the UK.

Having lunch with some friends from out of town tomorrow so that's nice. They're the couple that lived in Labrador and moved to Quebec City. She was a teacher and decided to retire, and go to university in Montreal to become a minister! Now she's got one of the only English churches in Quebec City with a lovely 200 year old manse to live in! She's got family here so is here on a flying visit to see them and her grandkids and we're getting together tomorrow for a bite. :)

On the last trip back from Australia I was stuck in the last row of the 747, next to the washroom. Couldn't even see the movie because whenever anyone got up to go to the loo, they'd block the screen.

Thankfully now, most of the larger AC fleet has screens in the back of every seat. They're touch screens and quite cool with a variety of movies and tv.
