Remember it well and it was a big thing at the time and an extra holiday a lot of these community events even around Rotherham like the lord mayors parade and the Miners gala to mention a few seemed to disappear under Thatcher not to mention a lot of community spirit around these parts anyway.

First time the pubs opened all day, I was in bed by 5pm !o!

@ Charts, I've still got several newish Benny's with button down collars, couple are checked

Bobbies (real ones, not plastic ones) walking the beat. Anglers float fishing. Cheap holidays in Turkey. Football clubs owned by someone not making money out of it. Dogs under control. Kids not out of control.

Black bears in that degree of cold spend most of their time denned up, its not hibernation but they try to pack weight on in autumn in the run up to winter -40 is fine for 15 minutes, after that you just want warmth

I think Nova Scotia is actively encouraging immigration at the moment, its one of the easiest provinces to get PR
