  1. Just tried the link from here again and it now works. I guess we are lucky in being spared what Amazon went through yesterday.lol
  2. You say once their ad is pulled it can’t be undone but then say some retire 3 times and come back. Which is it?
  3. Are you going directly to their site or from here?
  4. Definitely a problem with the links here to RM. All the linked profiles on here in the deli are showing ooops.
  5. It works for me when I go on it directly but not if I try to link from here. Must be something wrong on this end.
  6. Ad expired or not found.
  7. No. Works perfectly well for me. I should note I am a premium client. Over the many years as a member I have never had an issue and they still only charge me $9.90 per month.

    Yes but Paris is a good place to age in. The food is excellent for the diet and the French keep their figures. 🤗
  9. One of them mentioned the date in the film as being 2020.
  10. What happens when the sand blows?
  11. Not sure about an age discrepancy. The video was shot in 2020 which would align with his age being 74 or so now.
  12. Look at that guy on the right side of the photo. Only in Paris.
  13. I remember having lunch there with my sister’s godmother who took the four of us siblings. That would be in the 1950’s and it was an art deco interior altho at that age I wasn’t aware of the meaning of the style. The only thing I remember about the food was the dessert which was an ice cream cone served on a dish upside down with a clown face on the ball of ice cream.
  14. I was doing that at the gym today. But nobody noticed me.
  15. When I was growing up, Eaton’s and Morgan’s were the two department stores where one shopped for just about anything. Ogilvie’s and Simpson’s were more specialized but still had nice stuff. You went to Birk’s to get silver, crystal and dinnerware, and of course jewellery. All of this was within three or four blocks on Ste Catherine Street. No other city in North America had such fine shopping in such a concentrated area. Morgan’s sold out to the Hudson Bay in the 1960’s and Birk’s went bankrupt in the early 1980’s. Eaton’s also went bankrupt. All were family firms based in Montreal except for the Eaton’s who were from Toronto. Not sure about Simpsons.
  16. To clarify, a couple of decades ago the church sold the land beneath it, a twist on selling air rights, and an underground plaza was built joining to the kilometers long network of underground retail spaces all over the downtown commercial area. During the winter this is an attractive alternative to walking on blustery Ste Catherine and other thorough fares.
  17. What you don’t see in this picture is the vast underground city of stores and other businesses that lies underneath the church. The only clue is the set of glass doors in the lower right of the photo.
  18. I think it’s time to drop the talk about posting pictures. I say get over it.
  19. At the turn of the 20th century Montreal was one of the most elegant cities in North America. It was the centre of finance and industry headquarters and had a strong cultural life. If you notice the architecture in this picture, nothing was ignored. Only the finest materials and little details like stone walls and wrought iron fencing around the church to separate it from its commercial neighbours. And lovely elm trees which once adorned the city. I was fortunate enough to grow up seeing the last of this urban cityscape before a lot of it disappeared in the 60s and 70s. Fortunately some charm remains in pockets here and there.
  20. Well how was he? How long ago was it?
  21. Beautiful horse. The guy ain’t bad either.
  22. So touching to see, especially after the recent death of Jane Goodall. She did so much to bring awareness to the world of chimpanzees.
  23. In cases like yours, I always refer to my profile on RM where I am a premium client. That way I don’t have to repeat my details. If they advertise on RM then they have access to my profile.
  24. Yes thank you. Same to you. I have so much to be thankful for. And I try to pay it back each and every day.
