Canuk Greg from Ottawa, Canada

Thought I'd turn a new page for you .

Hi Greg. Thanks for the comments on the gorilla puzzle today. Martha now has graduate students working under her who do the scutwork, but it never bothered her. She can tell some interesting stories about her work, for sure. I'd love to visit while she's there, but I can't handle the altitude these days.

Hi Greg, my family are from Vancouver. They are not staying here for the full five weeks as they are visiting lots of different people. I have them for the weekend which will be wonderful and then I'm having a bit of big 'do' at my humble abode in a weeks time when they will be coming back before heading back to Vancouver.

We've always had a bit of a laugh on the other pages, especially when we are a bit mental! Food for the soul.

That was a great Movie, I have the soundtrack on CD. I should get the DVD. Thanks for "putting it up", Greg.

Hi Greg! Thank you so much for the rhyme! I love it! Thank you, also, for the birthday wishes. I appreciate it! My children will be here tomorrow to help me celebrate along with Angi/South Lyon, my oldest daughter, her birthday was Tuesday and Christina, my DIL whose birthday is on Monday!!! Christina won't be able to join us this year. She is busy with her art fair. If you have a chance to check out her glassware, I have it posted in my photo gallery. Thanks, again, for making me feel so special.

there were many more exhibitors Greg from wood turning and ceramic tiles to willow basket weaving and ancient fabrics being reused in wonderful artistic ways.
All in all some very talented people.

Wow - not easy getting to the end of your rainbow. Anyway, just wanted to say I loved your last joke (carved figures), and wasted no time sending it on to my brother - he needs material to entertain his card group!

Awesome choice CG!!! Sent chills down my back! Was very moved. I am saddened by the events that have happened but I will still cheer the athletes on because they're the gluing factors for our world. If the politicians want a war, we should provide a plain where they can do the fighting and leave the rest of us alone!

Thanks for the welcome CG. I read your comments with interest most days. Albino macropods are not that uncommon but don't have a very long life in the wild as they get badly sunburnt. We had a rufus wallaby (paddymelon) as a pet for many years. She lived in our suburban allotment and was great pals with our chihuahua. She was housetrained & came in at night, slept in front of the fire or on my daughter's bed.
My wife is preparing to go to Canada later this year to see a friend in Edmonton and then to the east coast to the Titanic memorial and Anne of Green Gables Centennary (I think). She hasn't bought the ticket yet so I wouldn't be surprised to see a little slippage in the time frame.
Best Wishes

Thank you Greg for the Freddie Fender songs also love the old version of teardrop falls I used to have the whole song down pat needed to hear it twice to remember it all thanks for the memories.

Hi Greg. Wow I have not spent much time here in the last 12 months but so many people have dropped by to wish me a great birthday. I am flattered. Hopefully life will start to settle down for a bit and I can be here more. I am having a simply great birthday. How is life with you and yours?
Hope you like birthday cake........ I have left you a few slices to share with your family.

Hey you! Long time no talk. Boy what a year its been in my neck of the woods. But I survived and now its time to start another school year. My computer crashed, so I couldn't get to another till now. Please forgive me. Hope you're doing well and Oh, I have a question. How do you change your email with this site? I have a different one now. Can you help? I'll check in more often now. Thanks.

Hiya Greg. Long time no talk. Making some quick rounds to say hello and will probably miss a lot of the people I want to greet. Oh well. Hope they don't mind. You got a hello, so be glad. Hope all is well with you, I haven't had time to stop in much this summer.

Hi Greg,
thanks for your warm welcome I love the polar bears and the saying underneath if only everyone in the world took notice, I have been made welcome by a lot of people and sudokuland is just great, well have a nice day, love Canada by the way too a dream of ours to one day maybe come and visit, cheers from Australia

Thank you for caring and thanks for the info. Its good to hear from you, as well. I sure missed sudoku land! Don't have time to read comments any more, but I HAVE to play every day. LOL. Take care.

LOL - love a good "GROANER" and you supplied an A-First Class one today

Thank you for your bithday greeting - you devil. The weather isn't cooperating - yesterday was 108°, today, my "medicare" birthday, is suppose to be 105°.

Mom called this morning to sing me Happy Birthday. Last year I was in So. Cal. with her for my Birthday.

Tonight, I will be working Britt & listening to Midori and the Britt Orchestra, and being Pop Corn Queen - a title I got several years ago. [Not a fun job when it is hot - sun on the back & heat from the kettle. But during classical allows time to mix with friends.] I've found the least amount of clothes I'm allowed to wear and still be presentable.

Thanks again for the Birthday wishes.

Ok CG, you've shamed me into greeting each and every newbie!

Thanks for the welcome home, Greg, & also for the lift over the page!!

thank you Greg for visiting my page & for your warm welcome - I've been around the pages for quite a while but only joined earlier this year, Shae & Samara are gorgeous aren't they & they are as nice as they look. The Beaver Tail Pastry was a perfect welcome gift, once again

Hi Greg. Thanks so much for stopping by my page with your good wishes. My mother-in-law is truly a remarkable woman who has seen much in her life -- she's pretty much gone from the horse and buggy days of her childhood in Texas to the space age. I do believe that having good thoughts and prayers sent her way will help her recovery - and hopefully help her to accept that a slight life-style change must be in her future! Again, thanks so much for your message!

I could read some more. eh!!

LOL - have a friend who is a pet sitter and she really liked getting a cat joke (vs dog) for a change. Of course, knowing cats, it's really like laughing at everyday life.

Greg, for taking the time to wish my son Robert a Happy 22nd Birthday.

Have some more Canadian "humor" that will be coming your way... Fell in love with Vancouver and BC when we were there for the Steam (trains)Exhibition eons ago

Hi Greg - I did see your cereal post - and had a good giggle. Every time I come to your page your picture of the plar bears makes me tear up. Something I seem to be more prone to lately! My world is pretty ok, I have my ups and downs, and 4T seems to be having more downs than ups (17, girlfriend, last 18 months of school ....) Mr P is overworked and stressed out..... But seriously, I'm looking forward to our week in Honolulu from 6 - 13 Sept. It was nice to reminisce about our trip to Victoria on Easy today.
How's your world? Are you liking retirement? Was that your cat you were referring to today - if so, I'm sorry for your loss. Pets are as special as the people in our lives.

Greg, may I ask who's is the cat you are referring to today? As a cat lover, I would like to know so I may also offer my condolences.

Greg, thanks for the welcome back message. We had a great holiday although it was hot , as we expected. Will put some photos on my page when I have reduced them. Also have a few to submit for jigsaws etc.
I sent you a private message before I left. I hope you got it OK.

Hi Greg! I DID notice your pictorial cereal post & thought it was very clever. I'm sorry I didn't comment on it. Lately I have gone back to just lurking again & making comments only on people's personal pages. I just couldn't keep up anymore with all the birthday wishes, welcoming new members, compliments on jokes, etc. It seems rude to acknowledge some but not others. Hope you are well & enjoying your retirement. Take care.

Hi Greg,
Thanks for taking me across to a new page, I'd noticed the other day that it was coming up.
Having an anxious wait at the moment, our business sale is due to settle tomorrow and I'll be one happy little vegemite after it does.

Then I'll have to calm down and be a refined retired lady. Probably no chance of that!!

Thanks Greg, for the birthday & operation wishes for my Dad. Looks like it might be put off again - wont know till I ring him tonight. The Cardiac Surgeon wants to talk with all his Doctors! All of his specialists are Sydney based, but he sees them in Dubbo & of course they're all there on different days at different times of the month, but they are all at St Vincents where he is now! I shall also give him your warning about skydiving, but once he sets his mind to something it's very hard to talk him out of it!!

Hey Greg, Well I am back here but not sure about settled LOL I had such a fantastic time in Florida and other parts of the East coast, it was wonderful. It is great news that you are coming to visit Oz, you will love it! Hmmmm Billster is a bit of a party animal tho and it can be infectious LOL sooo as our ex Prime Minister once said "Be alert dont be alarmed" rotfl It would be great to meet up, what parts of Oz will you visit?

Hi Greg, long time no hear! I did make one mistake in painting the steps. I locked the front door so that if someone came by they wouldn't just walk in like most of our friends do, and so now I can't get a fan at the bottom of the first set of steps to speed up the drying process. Oh well, I have one at the top, that should help. The only problem is that if I want to go downstairs I have to go out the backdoor and past my neighbors bachelor party going on, lots of young men in the back yard. They invited me over for a beer and a burger but didn't want to crash "the guys day" Well, off to clean some wine bottles. Take care buddy

Thanks for the warm welcome. I have been to Sarnia a few times. Especially when I was a child and we would take the boat to Port Huron to go fishing, we would usually have a picnic in Canada before heading back home. Good times!

Oooh, oooh, I know CG, he went to the poorly cut barber. If there were only two barbers, then they would have to go to each other. So by going to the barber who gave the best cut rather than the recipient of the cut, he would ensure that he would get good service!

i loved my 2 day b-day! have to say the first was better than the second though. it was due to people like you. thanks for taking the time to wish me well.

Hi Canuk Greg!

You certainly haven't done many jigsaws lately! If you had you'd know all the Chinese New Year Parade pictures are mine - not Ian's!

Cheers!

Incidentally so were the Archibald Fountain photos and Il Porcellino!

Greg - Came back for a final Sudoku "fix" for the day and I saw your Ode to Sheilas from a few hours ago. That's me. I will have to save it.
