I've not ever tried it before. I'm a Tim Hortons girl myself :coffee:


LOL! Timmy's for me as well...... if I have to take longer than 30 seconds to find what I want on the menu, it's just not worth it.

That's what I love about that place. I walk into the local one here and I don't even have to say what I want. Ole Rose behind the counter says hey ******* in her thick liverpoolian accent as loud as she can and goes right to the cups and gets my order spot on each time lol It's actually like an episode of Cheers when I go there. All the ladies behind the counter say hi and gather round and we have a nice chat each time Smile

The judicial system in just about every country is a complete catastrophe in one way or another.

I was reading the newspaper the other day and was completely shocked at this one story.

In Toronto, there were people getting information about home owners finances etc, putting their homes up for sale and once the home was sold they took the money and ran. The actual owner of the home had to vacate for the 'new' owners but still have to pay the mortage!

They are trying to change the laws to avoid this happening again.

Another thing I read a while back is something called 'squatters rights'.

If you go on hols for a month, someone can break into your home and live there and when you come back, you can't kick them out! They can legally take over your property.

Another thing we found out from an estate agent here is if you buy property and aren't using a portion of it and your neighbour does, if you don't tell them right away it's your property then they can take it over legally and you're screwed. When you want to sell, you must take that portion of the property off as it's no longer yours.

There's a couple examples of a broken down judicial system, and that's not even the tip of the iceburg.


What a fucking world we live in.....
