England update



Just found out this morning, that I will be leaving to England on April 2, wow it seem so far away yet so close. I also found out that I have to get, an international driver's licence and I was told, that you can get those at any local CAA offices for $12.00 canadian. Can't wait to get my arse over there. Carol is almost as exited as I am. Time to start packing, and of course the golf clubs are coming with me, it would be a shame not to play a few rounds here and there.

Here is a few pics of some of Tillsonburgs infamous landmarks, one is the Royal Tavern, the only place in town with Stripers, actually, there is only one, and it is the same one all week, she performs twice a day, once for the lunch crowd and one when the factory workers are done their shift at around 4 pm.

The other one was called the Big I, short for the Imperial tavern, where the low life of Tillsonburg went for a drink, and some actually lived there. There was a few rooms upstair for around $80.00 per week, with shared bathrooms and showers. Not a nice place to bring a girl on a fisrt date. The owner retired and sold the place, the new owner wants to turn it into offices.
