	we spent 2 hours this morning watching TV the Leader of the Federal Opposition Party died on Monday, of cancer. The federal election was only in May, and Jack Layton had led his party to a record (for it) 103 seats in the federal Parliament. They had one "sitting" of about a week. Two weeks later, he announced he was taking a leave of absence. He was a wonderful man .... even if you did not like his party! He was given a State Funeral ...... lay in state in the Parliament Buildings in Ottawa for 2 days, then in Toronto City Hall Friday and Saturday morning. Then the Memorial Service ...... ecumenical, blessings from First Nations, Anglican, Jewish, Asian ................ lots of music and singing, and laughter. He'll be sadly missed ............. he brought civility back into politics! s xxx

	LK I meant to respond to an earlier posting of yours re access problems during the Olympics My experience from the Winter Olympics last year in Vancovuer is to advise you to leave town! Cancel all appointments Do not plan on being able to carry out life in anyhting like normality! The Summer Olympics are much larger than the Winter ones, so our problems would be multiplied for your Also do not forget that the paralympic Games begin a week or 10 days after the Olympics ............. so you have add that disruption to your calendar. It will be at least one month! I did not go downtown for about 5 weeks No-one with any sense took a car to anywhere near downtown OR any sporting or etertainment venues. All parking and stopping was suspended in the whole downtown area All parking and stopping was suspended on all routes between the Athletes Village(s), sporting venues, hotels where IOC members were staying, the IOC headquarters, and the airport. Car cavalcades of IOC officials had priority movement on all roads ...... they were escorted by police cars and motorcycles ....... the motorcylces did a sort of rolling closure of all side roads until the cavalcade had passed. The most important people at the Olympics are NOT the athletes, but the IOC members. Nothing must be allowed to hold them up. I am deadly serious here ....... do not expect your clients to have an easy time reaching you if you are anywhere near any of the above mentioned venues. s xxx

	I must say we have the Olympics just down the road from us (mountain bikes) I dont think I will move out :-D We had a practise the other week and were given parking permits for two cars...we have a drive and I am sure we could get HIDs car on too and sell the parking permits :-) I cannot see anyone parking where I live and walking it would take half an hour at least ja...x

	Morning everyone. Another sunny day here but looks a touch breezy. Spoilt for choice yet again! Thanks Sylvs. Dea....what do you mean - getting your appetite back? I'd never noticed it had gorn! :-D Mr Jones is going to be SO jealous that ja...x and Renes sorted out the tekkie prob. Well done you two. Not sure what I am about today - depends on whether OH is motivated. May go and see my once-poorly friend, take her back to her house and pick up some bedding that needs washing. Something less for her to worry about. See you later.
