NEW ADDRESS





Michael and I are on the move, trading the community life of the West End for some ultra-chic urban livin' (or something) in the heart of Gastown, Vancouver's historic district which was settled by and named for the infamous 'Gassy Jack' - so called because of his habit of talking constantly. Well, I'm about to move into the area and believe you me (nod to Peter Kay there), when it comes to nattering they ain't seem nothin' yet... Our new pad is right on Water Street -home of the world-famous Gastown 'Steam Clock' (no, me neither...) pictured above. Our new place is right by the tree in the background. Anyway this steam clock, right, is totally steam-powered and every 15 mins lets off this funky steam-propelled tooting sound (the same chimes as Big Ben, incidentally). Given that this is going to be taking place about 30 yards from my bedroom window, expect the noisy little bleeder to be smased to pieces by an unknown vandal sometime in the next few weeks...

Anyhoo, as of 15th July our address will be:

#301 - 345 Water Street
Vancouver, BC
V6B 1B8

Tel: 604 682 4402 (no change)

The phone will be connected on Tuesday 18th July and I won't have internet access until then either.

Right, me and Madonna have some more packing to do...

Still loving the blog!! It's great hearing your life story.

Fingers crossed for you that the visa comes thru ASAP before you get deported.
