They used to ship to Canada...I've ordered plenty from them and they would ship via DHL and only once did Customs try to slap 73% duty on them; I just refused the shipment (as per Puroxepress' instructions) and they went back for a refund. I guess the govt' bastards got a little too wise and it became too much of a pain in the butt.

Hey IceMan: Thanks of the offer of the Popeye cigarettes. I haven't had one of those in a while. Yeah, sure... why not? I'll try one. :-)

Gents,

Just a quick question from a newbie ... I am a new owner and am thinking of popping out for a Saturday GTG sometime soon. My problem is that my wife works on Saturday mornings so I have my son. Is it okay to bring the little one with me? (He is 1.5 yrs old but well behaved!)

I don't think anyone has a problem with it. I've brought my son a couple times but he gets bored fast so I take him in for a treat and drink. He was more interested in playing with ants in the parking lot....lol

My son knows not to touch the cars as well so I didn't have to watch for him leaning on anyones car or stuff like that but was older, 4.5 at the time.

Chris,
Lots of us have brought our kids of varying ages. Some entertain themselves with Gameboys and such while others are really into looking at the cars, but the one thing they all have in common is that they all seem to request lots of treats!...so you might go broke on hot chocolate, cookies and comics!
Unfortunately, my teen daughters are no longer interested in hanging around a parking lot looking at cars with their dad.

Of course, everyone is welcome. It's very casual.
