Thread jack.... Comox; interesting name for a town. Never quite made it there but did have a blast fishing in Deep Bay / Hornby Island area on several trips over the last 10 years. I remember the BC highway department starting work on the Malahat at 4pm on the Friday of a holiday weekend on one of our trips - talk about a traffic jam!

welcome back to the fold Grant. Good to hear you have hung on to the old girl after all these years. I remember selling you parts when we were both young bucks and you worked at Stongs in Dunbar... I am just down the road from you in South Surrey.

That goes back to 1984!! Nearly 30 years ago. I used to light the building with 12 volt batteries and six roadster everwing fog lights (new ones were $7 each from Nissan). Even broke one lens when a 67 head rest fell out of the rafters. Oh to be young and stupid again....

You are only as old as you feel. If you are feeling old, change your tactics and find a younger woman (or man as the case may be) to feel...
