Randy and Tal Bachmann were both just on GB News live.

 

 

They got to talking about how Harry and Megan were here, and they said "they" (Randy and Tal) live just 100 yards from Deep Cove Chalet, on the water.

 

 

Randy did not look great, but I guess he is 78.

Who is she going to get to build it now .

“…Leaving her Hollywood life behind, Pamela has made her way back to her home town of Ladysmith, BC. and gears up to tackle this massive renovation. But she’s not in it alone — after all, the key to any dream reno is to assemble a dream team. Her husband and local carpenter Dan Hayhurst, her mother Carol Anderson, and a local crew of designers and craftspeople are up for the challenge..”: https://www.hgtv.ca/...canada-1949486/

She did a good job on Tool Time.

Ah yes the 'CCB'......arguably the best known most famous Canadian animation production ever ('the Sweater' which was a 1980 classic short about a boy from Quebec who places an order for a jersey of his favourite ice hockey team ie the HABS. However, much to his chagrin, he is sent a Toronto Maple Leafs sweater! Sacrilege!), but the 'CCB', released in 1988, was definitely an instant smash hit that rates right up there.

Paw Patrol much more famous.




They work together on missions to protect the shoreside community of Adventure Bay and surrounding areas. Each dog has a specific set of skills based on emergency services professions, such as a firefighter, a police officer, and an aviation pilot. They all reside in doghouses that transform into customized vehicles, or "pupmobiles", for their missions. They are also equipped with special hi-tech backpacks called "pup packs" that contain tools relating to the pups' jobs.

Mega millions of dollars. Canada produced.

Didn’t some members of Victoria council object to Paw Patrol?

Out for dinner at a nice place tonight, it was full and Raffi got turned away. Imagine that!

Pender Island artist Caleb Beyers died unexpectedly last month at the age of 42, the result of a fatal heart attack. While the loss cut short a life full of substance and promise, his spirit — and artistic contributions — will reverberate through the region for years to come.

 

Born in London, England, and raised in and around Victoria, Beyers played an integral role in the creative design of several popular and wide-ranging local companies, including Habit Coffee, Bows Coffee Roasters, Discovery Coffee, Hoyne Brewing Company, Big Wheel Burger, Mo:Lé and Victory Barber & Brand. His impact was such that a fundraising initiative in Beyers’s honour was met with considerable support, raising more than $215,000 thus far for his wife, Hanahlie Beise, and sons Asher, 4, and Elia, 2.

 

The immediate response — more than $150,000 in donations within the first 24 hours of being posted on GoFundMe — did not surprise friend Alex Conconi of Vancouver, who co-ordinated the crowdfunding drive. Beyers was incredibly well liked wherever he went, and genuinely cared about his clients and the well-being of their respective companies.

 

“It doesn’t surprise me, but it impresses me. We’re almost at 700 donors. That’s a big group of people that he has touched or changed their lives in some way. It’s testament to who he was.”

 

The biography on Beyers’s Instagram account is an apt summation of his talents, interests, and priorities: “Art, family, fibre, farming, design, food, cameras, plants, buildings, bikes, cats, dogs, alpacas, sheep and everything else.” Family was always his top priority, but creative pursuits were a very close second, according to his friends.
