Is it me or has there been a noticable abscence of "foreign" voices on Winipeg Terminal frequencies?
At one stage there were at least 3 different accents:1 English 1 Australian/New Zaeland? and 1 Sth African
What gives? Too cold for them?

Then again quite a few Canucks and Yanks have told me (a Brit) how wonderful my Australian accent is :!:

Any comments Jerricho? (ya pommie b@#s@#d!)

Ahh that makes sense now, his last christmas card was written on a boomerang. I just thought it was a coincidence!!!!!

The postage on that thing was a bitch. ;) Kinda like you Squib.

Alas, I am the only foreign controller left in the ranks of YWG TCU........apart from a Newfie. The Rhodesian went back to the sunny Middle East, and the English guy packed it in and headed to Aberdeen in Scotland.

2 down, 1 to go eh? Not fricken likely.

(I'm sure I beat somebody to saying it)

I live in Churchill where we don't get fresh vegetables, maybe crayons would be a good substitute, i saw lots of those in the store earlier today??
