city only, have to have somebody keeping me company, but what a great feeling after being restricted to other peoples' availability and schedules. Cool

Now to get back to work on my regular schedule and build up the clutch leg! cheers

Congradulations Lyle. Theres nothing like self dependence. Depending on others always sucks. Keep up the good work Bud, and it won't be long and you'll be popping the clutch.

Good morning 4 and a bit of drizzle. Packing up heading home soon. Had the best oyster burger in a long long time yesterday at the brew pub. Loves me some sea food. Thats some good news Lyle nothing like having your indepedance back even if its still got its limits.
Have a great day

Good morning everyone, -8 last night, -3 now and 0 to +2 region for a high. Cloudy this morning as there is an approaching system coming that is supposed to leave us a bit of snow but only around 5 cm. Darn snow! It's time for spring weather.
Have a great day.

by Ragtacker Mon Mar 27, 2017 5:43 am

Good morning 4 with showers today and the next few days. Stuff is budding and blooming but its not even close to warm yet, we are way behind this year.
Have a great day

It was plus 13 yesterday, a few guys had their cars out. A little early for me, i dont go out till the street sweepers have been out and its rained at least once. get all that salt and sand off the street.

by petnic01 Mon Mar 27, 2017 8:13 am

It will probably be May for me before getting the car out. We always expect a dump or 2 in April.

Hey Sheldon. Which rad did you put in your car again? I'm sitting on 2 cheap rads that I bought and thinking I should go to a higher end unit...especially with the Evans Coolant

by Ragtacker Mon Mar 27, 2017 9:24 am

I am interested in this as well.

by Grumpy427 Mon Mar 27, 2017 9:28 am

well i spent good money on my Rad, i have learned, that cheap doesn't mean good. lol I bought a Smiths radiator. It wasn't cheap, but my car holds at 180-190 on a hot day you can watch the stat open and close on the temp gauge. Its a 22" DROP IN RAD, 2 LARGE 1.5" ROWS 3" TANKS WITH A SHROUD.

Nice Rad and I agree sometimes you need to spend the extra cash.

by **smoken340** Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:33 pm

Good day all, it reached an high of 15 today, not much sun but nice just the same.

by JGL Tue Mar 28, 2017 5:26 am

Good morning, a new blanket of snow this morning but only about 8-10cm which will likely be gone by this afternoon. -2 right now but shouldn't get very much sun.
Have a great day.

by Grumpy427 Tue Mar 28, 2017 6:28 am

Had a shitty sleep, first cup of coffee. Too early to tell what the day will be like. I work at 9 am, Ugh..lol Big strike looming at the local refinery, been given the heads up, warning,threat if you will, not to cross the picket line. lol Don't you just love a union. I would not cross anyway, not my circus, not my monkeys.

Thanx Sheldon. I'm going to check into the product

by petnic01 Tue Mar 28, 2017 7:42 am

Should be a nice day today, sunny and +6C. If you're bored Sheldon, and want some excitement, maybe you should try and cross the picket line lol!. All kidding aside, do workers ever recover from a strike?

by **smoken340** Tue Mar 28, 2017 7:54 am

Good morning all. Going to be cloudy this morning and 9. Sun is supposed to break through this afternoon. Think maybe I'll BBQ something this afternoon.
I personally don't think there's a place for unions anymore, at one time they had a role to play, helping workers. However I think they do more harm than good anymore. But this is just my opinion, for all that its worth.

by petnic01 Tue Mar 28, 2017 8:38 am

I think we are all in agreement

by JGL Tue Mar 28, 2017 9:38 am

Haven't been in a union in at least 55 years!
