I got to London a bit early today and had a couple of hours to kill.
Angela's plane from Ottawa had a late start and had to fly into a
pretty stiff breeze. So what is a man to do on Oxford Street, 3
minutes away from the airport? Well he gets to walk around Lee Valley
of course. I fondled stuff. Bought some stuff. Life is frickin'
awesome!

You suck too!

On the other hand, your cost of living might have taken a substantial
hit!!!

In that case....you deserve it. ;^)

I hear a Lowe's is setting up shop also!

Does this mean they will have to double all the US price tags before they
open?

They have to replace the burned-off roof before they can open.

I sure hope they are better than tha Home Despot and Rona stores in
the area.

From what I hear from Burlington? their prices ARE competetive.

I still like buying my lumber from Fairway Home in St Jacobs or the
former Beaver on Park Street and my hardware from Glenbriar Home
Hardware (or for the more specialized stuff, Spae Naur).

For quantities of low end bolts etc, nothing beats TSC - buy by the
lb.

Is that at Erb and Ira Needles area?

I always like Fairway too. Good quality stuff. Beaver not too bad. Can't
afford Glenbriar's plumbing or noses in the air, even when I didn't
curl...LOL

If you hold your hands out really quickly, you might catch that guy's
eyes before they hit the floor. He's excited, wot?
