I did this in Canada last year… the exchange teachers league in Ontario took us up to a YMCA camp near Haliburton for the weekend with other teachers… we got to try crosscountry skiing, shoeshoeing, broomball, tobogganing and yes, we even did a circuit around the lake with a Husky team pulling a dog sled… very cool… Hmm, in fact I just remembered I have a video of it, so I’m off to add it to YouTube! :-) Ah memories!

How I did it: If you have the cooperation of your ex, which I did, it's s relatively straightforward process. We didn't even use a lawyer, just downloaded the official paperwork, filled it in, got it signed and sent it off to the department concerned. One month and one day later it was official.The worst thing was the sense of failure and loss of personal esteem that comes along with a divorce.I never thought it would happen to me, despite … Read how I did it…
Did this one today. It was a pretty tough run, especially the big hill from Rose Bay up to Vaucluse, but it actually wasn’t as hard as I expected it to be. Went with the people from the gym and it was quite a social day.
Looking forward to doing it again next year with Linda.
I don’t know why I feel the need to go here, or why I haven’t done it already since it’s really not THAT far away, but I’d like to go see it. The Breadknife sounds amazing.
