Star Trek the movie

Just went and saw Star Trek the movie at Imax. What a theatre to watch this movie, spectacular, the audience even applauded at the end. Well worth going to see at the Imax theatre.

CHEK TV closing in Victoria very sad news

Unfortunately Canwest Global has decided to close CHEK TV in Victoria putting 4o talented people out of a job at the end of August, 2009. Big mistake on the part of Canwest Global, since Victoria and area is a rapidly growing area and is desperately in need of at least two independent TV stations. I never watched A channel and still probably won’t. Really a dumb move on Canwest Global’s part, and one I hope they will regret.

Thanks to all the newscasters at CHEK for their past great and generally unbiased reporting. Sorry to see you go.

Bellowhead live at Butchart Gardens

Went to see this fantastic group of young (compared to me) entertainers last night called Bellowhead http://bellowhead.co.uk/. There are ten guys and one girl in the group and all play various instruments, playing sea shanties and other pleasant and stirring music. Thoroughly enjoyed their whole performance unfortunately they are not performing in Victoria again for the foreseeable future.

If they come to your town or city don’t miss them.

Another busy day at www.gsaautorentals.com

What a day!!!

Had a very busy day, 5  car rentals deliveries event though 4 were previously booked.  Four arrived by plane all around the same the same time, quite a bit of juggling, but it all worked out. The last one came by ferry, full of questions, first time on Vancouver Island, wanted to know speed limits etc.

Yellow Point Lodge

Joyce and I just returned from 4 days at Yellow Point Lodge http://www.yellowpointlodge.com/index.htm, north of Ladysmith. Had a great time, hadn’t been there in over 5 years, met up with some old friends. Same great food. Very relaxing and peaceful. Already booked for next year.

Still managed to look after GSA Auto Rentals www.gsaautorentals.com  thanks to modern technology.

A RANT about bicyclists on Vancouver Island

I am getting really sick and tired of cyclists that think they own the road. I own a bicycle and would never think to ride the way I have seen in the last few days. I followed two (male and female ) riding along along East Saanich Road, never slowed down, paused or stopped at 3 (three stop signs), just darted out into traffic  forcing one driver to slam on their brakes to avoid a collision. It should be mandatory for bicyclists to have a licence to use the roads and the police should enforce the law of the roads. Enough is enough let’s do something before some poor motorist is sued by a uncaring, dangerous, unlawful cyclist.

Other than that another beautiful day on Vancouver Island.
