JGK,

Seaburn, one of the best areas of Sunderland. My girlfriend used to work at the large Morrison’s supermarket which is there and it’s where I shop every Saturday. Great beach which often gets underestimated. Also when I was in the police I was based at Southwick Station and the Roker and Seaburn areas were my beat areas so I know the place very well indeed. Small world.

It’s the Sunderland Air Show next weekend and it’s at Roker and Seaburn. Around a million people were there last year! You will probably be able to see parts of it on You Tube. I hope the rain keeps off as we have had an unusual amount of bad weather here over the last three months and the summer is a washout so far, but that’s the UK.

Can I ask you why you chose Canada as a place to live? I’m 47 yrs and its make or break time for me with regard to whether I make some type of move abroad. I do have my doubts as to if its going to be worth all the upheaval but I have the nagging thought that if I don’t then it will be a case of “what if” later down the line.

Cheers
Billy
