Hiya

I will be taking sign ups until 5pmish tomorrow British time (approx Midday on the East coast of the USA).

Still could do with a bunch more non-USAers and any more kids?!

ETA: Tiggers_pal I still need your details if you want to be in

I have sent a PM, count this Canadian in!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Okay, I am curious. I already have two food items purchased and was wondering what kind of non food items would be appropriate? I live near Kings Island - would key chain/pens/magnets be something anyone would want? Or is everyone wanting buckeyes?

 

[Pooh67_68]

Closing today. Woo names.

 

[Kirsteen]

Count me in - anyone for haggis? Kx

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Uhm, no thank you to haggis. Even Scooby Doo and Shaggy wouldn't eat haggis. But if you happen to have a kilt wearing, bag pipe playing, red headed lad..... Oh, wait, I'm a married woman. nevermind.

 

[Pooh67_68]

Haggis huh? well I am willing to try anything once and I have had scraple so if its similar then its not so bad.

Wyatt's mommy, a girl after my own heart.

 

[misslissa]

Hmmm. I'm trying to figure out what is Canadian!?!?! Is maple sugar Canadian???? Or, do they have that other places too...

The first thing that came to mind was Icewine because I'm from the Niagara area... however, I'm not a millionaire

 

[Kirsteen]

lol I'll see what I can do

 

[Pootle]

Sounds like a nice idea, so I'll join too. Sending PM now.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Let's see, Canadian...Dudley DoRight, Mounties, Maple Leaf Sugar Candies, Pure Maple Syrup, Cheese Soup, Better Hockey Teams, yup steriotypical things only come to mind. That and Aye!

 

[Gaspode]

This exchange is now closed for sign ups. Names will be out in a few hours time as I have to go to sign class now.

Best Wishes,
Gaspodé

Hiya

I'm afraid names will be delayed until tomorrow afternoon (British time - so early morning for you in the USA I should think!)

Taking a lot of time to work it all out fairly so that people from neighbour states aren't sending and receiving with each other - I figure you'll mostly get similar things in neighbour states you see!

Anyway it's gotten really late so I have to go to bed I'm afraid.

Sorry for the delay and I'll have your names with you as soon as I can tomorrow.

Best Wisehs,
Gaspodé

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

That is so sweet!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to do that.
I would much rather have something from a different region other than my own.

Let's see, Canadian...Dudley DoRight, Mounties, Maple Leaf Sugar Candies, Pure Maple Syrup, Cheese Soup, Better Hockey Teams, yup steriotypical things only come to mind. That and Aye!

??? What/Who is Dudley DoRight???

And, the only place I have ever had cheese soup is Le Cellier. It is so funny how the "countries" are so different than the real thing.

We definitely do say "eh" though. Spelled eh.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

There used to be a skit, I think on Saturday Night Live, that had what were supposed to be two Canadian guys who said eh & ai after everything. I think they even made one movie with those characters.
Dudly DoRight (probably spelled wrong) was a cartoon character in the 70's who was a Canadian mountie always coming to the rescue of a damsel (same damsel all the time). I believe Disney made a movie with Brandon Fraiser being the lead character.
I only said cheese soup because that is the one thing everyone raves about from LeCellier. I personally have never had it, but sure do think about it alot.
Pretty funny, or sad I guess, how there are only a few hundred miles between us and I don't know enough about Canada to know what it really Canadian.
