hey BJ, i sent a reply to that ? in the George watson thread, just a couple up from your reply, but anyway, i got real busy down there, real quick like within three hours of my arrival i was fixing and tuning and inspecting sewing machines at the Brunswick St. mission. My sister runs the place and they have set up a sewing center for the clients. Dad and i left Madoc 12:noon the sunday and arrived 05:30 Monday,(17hrs) called my sister in Sackville, went to Breaky and then to work. Spent the whole day and next two there. Then out to Peggy's Cove (east Dover) and painted a cottage. Dad and i got to the valley for just Saturday afternoon, and we ended up coming home Tuesday, cutting our visit short by a week. I have no excuse other than exhaustion for not picking up the telephone BJ, i should be flogged and tied in the sun! my appoligies, but hey, 17 hrs away! Dad and i plan to do it again real soon. My uncle sells X-mas trees there in Centerville, go to his farm, he takes you out with the horses and you cut your own tree, back to the farmm for fire and hot choc. I really would enjoy that, hint, hint! That one is for the wife to read BJ, anyway best wishes. Tim

What Recall Tim?
Have I been recalled? Is it because of the Chinese lead paint?

That sounds interesting. I am training to run a 10K and have my 1 1/2 mile down to under 12 minutes.
Who do we talk to?

Thanks Tim
I read through the qualifications and I dont think I would qualify (out for more than 5 years)
Looks like an interesting program though.
