Hi Stewart,
I've just been informed that I've been confusing the Ottawa/Oshawa events ...  

: 
I'd love to see that OSHAWA parade (I got that right this time? Eh? 

 ) so I hope that happens then! I also certainly hope I'll be in better shape by then (Arthur-itis or whatever the hell I have has been a real problem the last couple of months) and that the weather is warm and dry. I've just been told that Oshawa is only about a half hour drive from here, so we'll definately be there ... hurrah.
...and of course, as ever, I really look forwrd to meeting a lot of MLU people there, and seeing you again... with your Carrier this time!!!  I hope you will allow me to pet your Carrier and sit in it?  LOL (Do you have a pic posted in here of it?)
