Where do you live Zookie?? I am looking for a new place.

I spoke to the management office today and they said I can polish to my heart's desire if I do it in the designated washing bay. Unfortunately, the washing bay is quite busy and it would be pretty inconsiderate to hog it for 5hrs. Maybe I can plan to do the next one during work hours when it's less busy.

I was so irritated by it all that I could barely sleep last night; nothing like being told what you can and cannot do in your own home, especially when you feel you're being reasonable and responsible about it!

Buy a house, Farz. I have no tolerance for stick-up-their-butt whiny cry-babies or pussheads on power trips. I happily tell them where to go. Condo life ain't for me.

+1. When I lived in a condo 20 years ago, I never thought I'd be able to stand the added responsibilities of home ownership and upkeep. Now I find that the upkeep is a small price to pay for being able to do whatever I want on my property be it wash the car for hours on end or smoke cigars on the front porch or back deck. Now I'm trying to unload my ski condo in Panorama because I'm fed up with the constant nickel and dimming that the Strata Corp does on a yearly basis and some of the ridiculous bylaws they pass every time someone wants to control other owners/tenants behaviour...real power trips there too.

Funny the differences of opinion. I'm with Phil on this one - condo living isn't for me. I like/need my own space, no shared walls, my own backyard, especially for the kids. Nobody bitches about an engine drop with loud music and beer, let alone washing the car. Not that I wash it that often

As for spotting, I got nothing. Just miles and miles of minivans. Hell, I haven't even seen Cliff out driving in weeks, and I usually run into him fairly often!
