To all US based Albion fans. Trust Lyndhurst 14 , Juan Albion et al are enjoying the day. I myself have been/will be mostly drinking rather superior German wheat beers.

My apologies to the Canucks. Should have known that. Since I moved to the USA I've lost all track of the rest of the world. It's just not necessary here. In fact it's actively discouraged!

Eh? Thanksgiving was six weeks ago.
That is a great depiction of the Maple Leaf. Is it from a website where you can have it with any flag? Also I've never heard of Canuck- sounds pretty derogatory to me!

Happy Thanksgiving to all
Just relaxing after a great turkey dinner and a quiet afternoon with the family playing Trivial Pursuit. One of the good things about moving around the world is that you get to celebrate lots of different holidays.
I actually find Thanksgiving to be one of the best - not very commercialised and really focused on family. Even stayed away from NSC all day until now!

I've known this is a huge holiday since watching Planes, Trains and automobiles but until this week, I'd always assumed it was in gratitude of the harvest. So, not a big celebration in black and native households, I presume.

Yes thanks Billy - we get today and tomorrow off so makes for a nice long weekend. Just watching the Cowboys gubbing the Seahawks 31-9. Will go into town tomorrow for the “Black Friday” sales and see if there are any decent bargains

Agreed
Hotel Clerk: Do you have seventeen dollars and a good watch?
Del: No I don't. I have uh... two dollars... and a Casio.
Hotel Clerk: I'm going to have to say goodnight, so...
State Trooper: What the hell are you driving here?
Del: We had a small fire last night, but we caught it in the nick of time.
State Trooper: Do you have any idea how fast you were going?
Del: Funny enough, I was just talking to my friend about that. Our speedometer has melted and as a result it's very hard to see with any degree of accuracy exactly how fast we were going.
It was a tragedy John Candy was only 44 when he died.

All I gather is that, as it says, The usage of "eh" in Canada is occasionally mocked in the United States. No idea why, but I think the reasons are best kept on your side of the Pond!

Canadians are notorious for ending their pphrases with EH? Juan got it backwards, and put it at the front.
Is Mansfield near Hardwick Hall?

No, I put it at the end of the first sentence. In fact it was a sentence in its own right, eh?

Yes, about 7 or 8 miles - it's slightly nearer Chesterfield.
