Miramichi, New Brunswick

I was travelling around New Brunswick last week and spent an afternoon driving up the Miramichi Valley, Canada's equivalent to the Tweed in the salmon fishing world. So I thought I would post a pic of one of the salmon fishing lodges in Doaktown, a village in the centre of the valley, to see if I can tempt Pete there some time. After all, what does a man do when he's fished the Kola Peninsula?? I had a look around the lodge (in typically Maritime fashion, there was no-one there when I visited, but they had left the door open and wouldn't have minded me having a peek...) and it looks very comfortable and is right on the banks of the river. Check it out without the snow at http://www.ledgesinn.com/ I also called in at the most famous salmon fishing shop in the country: W.W.Doak (www.wwdoak.com )...Pop Jim would have loved the place! New Brunswick is still deep in snow - on the coast road I was sometimes driving between banks of snow 8-10 feet high on either side. And here in Toronto, Gibson discovered how sticky the spring snow is when he returned from a romp in the park with snowballs amusingly attached to his undercarriage! It took a warm bath and howls of embarrassment to de-ball him...

Love from the Great White North, C, D ,P and T

Home again

Back from the land of dragons and lanterns (for a couple of months!) having had a lovely holiday - all the excitement of a three-year-old birthday followed by an amazing trip to Beijing to see the Forbidden City and the Great Wall - awesome!

Love to everyone from all in China - they're still suffering blog censorship quite frequently. (CNN and BBC World were constantly having the plug pulled on them last week whenever they reported on Tibet - it's really wierd, just like having a power cut but only on the television.)

Happy Birthday, Mother

Love you, miss you always.

ttt

We miss you Kate

Thinking of all the happy times and missing you on your birthday...

How brave to be wearing a white cardigan while balancing a chocolate Chip on your lap!

Love from all in Canada xxx

MEMORIES OF A HAPPY LIFE. LOVE FOR ALWAYS ON YOUR BIRTHDAY. WE ALL MISS YOU SO MUCH . X X X X PETE AND FAMILY.

Timmy's ice hockey team made it to the league final last night, which instead of being played on the rutted ice of an outdoor rink at the local park, was played on the perfect surface of the Ricoh Arena where professional hockey is played...An exciting game which they lost, but T scored a couple of classy goals, so he was very happy!

The other pic is from a couple of weeks ago when I was down in Orlando for the radio shows and had the unexpected pleasure of interviewing a kookaburra...at least he was more talkative than the penguins I had on the show last year...

Love to all, C,D,P&T

Just helping out!!

Come on we all the know that 'blue bump' was care of Celebrity cruises and the midnight feast's!! A little help from your friends was all you needed to get rid of it!! love H x
