I'm back, ramblings of a Jet Setter
Can't I Just Get A Goddamn Pizza?
Published Saturday, August 14, 2004 by JamesBB2.
So, Uncle Nigel got a wasp sting and had to be taken into hospital this Friday as he had an allergic reaction to it. So, Aunt Linda took me home and said to order Pizza. I came to order the pizza so I tried my favourite Boston Pizza! I spoke to the girl who served us the other night, she remembered me as when she asked for telephone number I said I was visiting from England! 'I think you were in the other night and you ordered pizza and bread and I mucked the order up?!' Yeah, Hi, nice pizza though! 'Hey'. So when I told her the telephone number, she didnt understand when I said "double 3". 'It must be an English thing!" she said. I just think it's because she was thick! So I ordered the pizza, for an individual, and then she tells me I have to have a minimum order of $17.99. As it was individual it was only $9.25. Gawd! So I thanked her and said it was only me who was eating!
I rang Pizza Hut, whose minimum was $10.00, but individual pizzas cost $3.95! Argghhh! So I ended up ordering a medium 'Canada, Eh?' pizza. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner for the next 3 days then lol!

I'm just back from a day in Vancouver and I am absolutely knackered!
I got the SkyTrain into town after UN dropped me off - he played golf today! I got off at Stadium and went to the BC Lions offices as a guy (I think his name was Bill) had arranged to get me BC Lions & Felions posters. He brought them through and I shook his hand. He had got the Felions poster signed by Leah - a cheerleader - and gave me a Hall Of Fame BC Lions player autograph as well! That was so cool!
Walked up Robson after that and then had a Subway for lunch which was delicious! I went to Blue Water Cafe in Yaletown and had a drink with Stefan - very pleasant! He asked about Dad and told me what it was like living in Vancouver. After this I got back on the SkyTrain to Waterfront and then got on the SeaBus to Lonsdale Quay - this is well cool as it is a ferry that takes you over the water included in the travel pass!!!! Took some photos of Vancouver from there.
Then I got back on the train to Metrotown - a huge shopping district! I got a Roots bag for school, really nice and only $34.00 (13 quid!) and a Roots Canada T-Shirt. Roots is a leading brand name in Canada!
I eventually made it back to King George to meet UN. I was SO tired! AL and I had Boston Pizza when we got back - sooooo nice! :D
On Monday we went Whale Watchin which was so cool! We were really close to the Whales and it was really fun!
Tuesday golfed again with next door neighbour Pat and his son Jordan. they beat us by +1 but I had improved, especially my putting!

It's been one week since you looked at me.....
Published by JamesBB2.
.....cocked your head to the side and said I'm angry.
Five days since you laughed at me saying
get that together come back and see me.
Three days since the living room
I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
but it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry
Yes! As the Barenaked Ladies song says, it's been 1 week. 1 long week in BC. It has gone flying by as I have been having so much fun! It has been an action packed week with tonnes of stuff to do! I ate Sushi for the first time, saw my first CFL game (GO BC!), played golf for the first time in 2 years, enjoyed take outs from Boston Pizza and Dominos! U name it I did it!
Today we went to downtown Vancouver to visit the Much Music Xbox Unleashed tour and the Yaletown Summer Celebration. So we had trouble finding City TV (where Unleashed was) as Multimap.com gave us really crap directions. When we finally found it, it was soooo crap we left after 5 minutes! All the Xbox games had been out for ages! So we left and went to Yaletown. It was really cool - so many classic cars and stalls! It was really fun to walk around!
We went to visit one of Dad's old employees Stefan, who manages the Blue Water Cafe in Yaletown. The restaurant is one of the most trendy and best places to eat in Vancouver, so when Uncle Nigel said we could go to the Sushi bar there, I was amazed! We had a Sushi platter which was so delicious, soooo much better than the takeaway. We sat at the bar where it was made and saw them prepare it. The Head Sushi Chef is one of the best in BC.
I bought some postcards (coming to a mailbox near you, soon! [I hope!]) to send and then went to 7-Eleven to try their famous Slurpee! It was really nice. I had Pepsi flavour. They're a bit like Slush Puppies or Ice Blasts in the UK but sooo much nicer!
Well after an eventful week, I'm amazed I still have money left! So BRING ON THE SPENDING!
