Joto Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 I've posted on this thread earlier (p2). By way of an update, here on Prince Edward Island we're battening down the hatches to prepare for a hurricane (Kyle, I think) that's supposed to hit us on Sunday. Just when the golf courses had started to dry out from the last tropical storm. How are you doing rog? Did that hurricane arrive yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassman1960 Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Hi everyone, I was born in Sheffield but my parents emigrated to Canada in the early 60's. I lived in a town called Aurora and then we moved to Mississauga. I now live back in Sheffield. I have friends in Canada and visited them in the 80 's, I may even go back to visit them again soon. Even though Canada is a wonderful place, I love Sheffield and the surrounding countryside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soft ayperth Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 How are you doing rog? Did that hurricane arrive yet? It was supposed to hit us tonite Joto, but they're now predicting that it's tracking west and will hit New Brunswick on its way up to Labrador. We'll just get a bit of rain and wind, nothing too serious. A storm in a teacup for us. cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redfyre Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Billy Jackson, an old schoolmate of mine from Newhall, went out to Canada, and lived in Toronto. Sadly, he died in Jan 2006. The Blanchard sisters, Molly and Ann, from Ecclesfield, also went out to Ontario, many years ago and settled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
