Nothing like getting a bargaining update that you are no longer in bargaining and instead taking a strike vote. All seemed to be headed in the right direction and now the potential of a transit strike in Vancouver during the Fifa World Cup is a strong possibility.

What is the messiest home improvement job and why did you choose caulking? By the time I was done I looked like I had pleasured a mime.

Wee man chose travel as his Uni grad gift.......he just touched down in South Korea. After touring Korea he will move on to China and then Singapore before heading back home to find a job. 😂😂

The best part of adulting is if I want to make a chicken bacon avocado and microgreens sandwich and Ruffles nobody can tell me no.

These apple fritters are ridiculous. Chocolate glaze is for scale.

Cinco de Mayo

Just did my civic duty and completed this year's Canada Census Form. Looooooooong

Excited to see my new patio furniture arrive until I opened the boxes and only an allen key was needed for assembly.

Proud dad moment.Wee man just had his grades finalized and officially achieved a 4.0 GPA and holds a Bachelor of Business degree. Crazy how time flies.

Porch pirates are the worst

Forced to fast for blood work this afternoon and it has been a painful exercise in how addicted to coffee I am. Headache, fatigue and downright moodiness.

I'm absolutely jonesing for a Greggs sausage roll.

My son has one class left tomorrow and final exams in the coming weeks and he will have completed his Bachelor of Buisness degree. How did I get this old? Also does anyone want to hire a new Business grad?

Excellent film.....out of this world really

Was sent this screenshot of a rugby match I played in Kyoto Japan in 1992. Look at the state of that pitch.....and camera quality. I'd say it's hard to believe it was 34 years ago but my body says otherwise

My favourite one.....

Truth

The Loch Ness Monster once claimed to have seen Chuck Norris. #RIP

The all-inclusive resort our golf group has booked for the third straight year just emailed to say they are adjusting the 24 hour bar to close at 1am. I can't help but feel we might be the reason for the change. ......

Nothing says Spring Break in Vancouver like 120mm of rain.

Best part of getting older.......the Trifle

Today is a good day.....

Seeing all these " What did you look like in the 90's ? " Instagram posts made me realize I have no idea if I have any pictures of myself from back then.

Just booked a massage on Friday for my birthday. Not as a treat, but so I can move enough to enjoy the weekend. Aging sucks

I miss opening a new cell phone box and seeing headphones included.

Surprised how many people at Vancouver Sevens are wearing grey chair costumes. #Vancouver7s #rugbysevens

Shout out to Service Canada for their efficiency. Walked into North Van branch for passport renewal and despite large line was in and out in under 1 hour. #NorthVan #NorthVancouver

The fireball and sonic boom last night was a reminder of the incredible forces we cannot control. Following the loud bang my entire home shook and bounced. Very unsettling.

Just had an MRI on my knee. Tech: Rob this will take 30 minutes, please stay perfectly still. I'll give you some headphones to listen to music. Once again do not move at all. First song.....In The Air Tonight . I was fighting for my life to not hit that drum solo.

In line to get passport photos taken at London Drugs. Woman is picking up and they can't find hers. Turns out her photos were put in the wrong envelope and had been picked up. The staff laughed and said we'll retake yours and hope the people realize. Poor woman was not amused

This State of the Union address needs more Bad Bunny #StateOfTheUnion

Japan is a special place

Mentioned to one of my townhouse neighbors that I had a vacation coming up. He asked when and where I was going. When I told him Japan and the date he replied " no way me too." Same flight one row apart. What are the odds?

I'm finding it difficult to go about my day today after the horrific events in Tumbler Ridge yesterday. These events are rare in Canada but incredibly haunting to the entire nation. I am just so profoundly sad, my heart breaks for all those involved.

Book golf trip vacation package for Sept, two days later airline cancels the direct flights and has us connecting through Calgary with 50 min connection time. Airline: " Don't worry if you miss your connection we'll put you on the next flight with a partner airline" ( Next flight 15 hours later)

Why was the manatee wearing a bikini?

When the golf trip makes it out of the group chat. Can't wait to tame this beast

Couple days until Fifa World Cup ticket allocation. Just reviewed what I applied for and should lightning strike my credit card is going to take a beating.

The Canucks Mum's aren't mad, they're disappointed. #Canucks

How long before a scheduled vacation do you tune out of work and life?

Be careful out there. I parked my car downtown Vancouver and I mistakenly left my Canucks tickets on the passenger seat. Someone broke in and left 6 more tickets #Canucks

Goodbye rear porch.....crazy how fast the crew removed it.

What could possibly go wrong? #ICE

Planning this year's golf trip and the only unanimous decision amongst the group is " anywhere but the US "

Instead of NATO Nations sending troops to defend Greenland, they should just tell Trump that the Epstein files are stored there and he will stay miles away.

2026 seems to be broken. Maybe we should reset it by unplugging it and plugging it back in.

Merry Christmas ya filthy animals

On this Christmas Eve I wish all of you, even the bots, a very Happy Christmas. I hope Father Christmas brings you all that you covet.

I wonder how much the tariffs will be on the goods Father Christmas brings into the US?

Had to buy it. If you're old enough to remember this classic ad, we can be friends.
