Any Londoners out there?

London

Hi there:

I'm in London, Ontario and have come across a bill and wanted to know if there were any other Londoners out there who have come across the Canadian Money Tracker.

Welcome aboard from Saskatoon Saskatchewan, the CMT capital. I did a search for Ontario users and none of the 36 have shown their home location as London…Maybe some from there may answer you question.. Start marking and tracking and maybe you can get some users in London started..Hope you enjoy the site and visit often….

Another welcome from Saskatoon. You should really enter the serial number of that bill you came across. That's when the fun begins.

Then the addiction begins and it's all downhill from there!

I lived in Ontario for a few years [Bordon] and have family in London. Been there many times. Nice City!

Always nice to meet another base brat. Been one almost my whole life, only entered civilian life about 3 years ago. It's different but I'm enjoying it.

I'm considering joining once I finish school. Probably sign up when I enter the University of Calgary, so my term with them will end around when I graduate. My mom strongly advises against not joining, but also says its my choice.

I think you will find your term of service begins when you graduate! But that's OK because the benifits far out weigh the minuses. If you choose the right trade or service the experiance is worth far more that time or money!! Good Luck!

There is no "term" if you go the route I did and simply join the reserves out of high school; I earned money based on how much I worked and it basically paid for my university (indirectly). And the profs at UofC are very supportive and I was able to get extentions whenever required throughout my four years there. All good. Make sure you join the King's Own though.

Why would I have to join the King's Own? Why not the 16th Battalion(I think thats what it is) Calgary Highlanders? I don't intend to, because I'm not a bit Scotch, but just the only regiment I could think of.

Why would I have to join the King's Own?

Umm, why would you walk everywhere and carry a whole bunch of crap in a rucksack when you could simply hop in your tank, armoured vehicle, whatever and drive everywhere? The Highlanders are infantry and we are armoured corps. Every year they get a TONNE of new recruits and then most of them quit because walking everywhere sucks.

Ok. Just wondering why to join ght King's Own. Also, it seems that the Highlanders have to wear the kilts on parades ans stuff. But, I still wouldn't join, as I'm not even a bit Scottish.

Ah! Laddie don't you know now theres nothing better to march to than the pipes n drums!! Certainly much better than those tin whistles those other bands use!!!

You should have been to the Saskatoon gathering last spring!

We were serenaded by the pipes & drums. (Check archived messages…one thread began'hooked another gas jockey'. It was our longest thread ever!)
