About Me

My photo
Vancouver, Canada
Originally from a small seaside town in the North of England, I lived and worked in France, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland and the Maldive Islands before moving to Canada in 1995 - where I intended to stay 'just a couple of years'. Well, I'm still here. I live with my fabulous (Canadian) husband, Lorne, in Vancouver's Westside, close to beaches & downtown. We opted for kitties over kids and are proud parents to 3 wonderful rescues; Mel & Louis, who we adopted in 2010, and little miss Ella, who joined us in 2013. I miss my family in the UK but luckily my sister and best friend, Victoria, lives just down the street with her family. I remain very European at heart and would love to move back there, even for a while. Hopefully I'll convince Lorne & the kitties one day. Besides, I'm fluent in French & German but rarely get chance to use either here. Outside of work I love photography, writing, making cards, working out, camping, kayaking, horse riding & most things really. I've always been an animal lover, support several animal protection organizations and haven't eaten meat in 27 years.

You have to wonder....

When I saw this sign on a washroom door today, 3 questions immediately came to mind:

1) Men can get pregnant??? What the...... How long has that been going on?

2) So these pregnant men are actually sneaking off to the washroom to sink a few frosties?

3) Are pregnant women hiding out in the men's loo to secretly knock back vast quantities of booze? - often enough ('twould appear) that the owners felt compelled to put up this sign?

Answers on a postcard, please to......

And, just for the record, I was not headed into the Men's room when I took this.....I'm not pregnant and nor did I have a big, fat vodka-tonic in my hand. But hey, if circumstances change, at least I know where to go.

    I am pleasantly reminded of laughter-filled lunchtimes in the cafeteria, those short months we worked together.

    The more frosties they sink, the pregnanter they look, some of them. :D

    Yeah, wouldn't be the first time I've seen a beery guy looking like he was about to have twins.
