Do you know what this means?
PED XING
What if I showed you this?
It would make more sense if written in Chinese!!
Anyway, here's another version which might give it away....
Yep, you got it - It is actually saying ' Pedestrian Crossing'.
Well, this is one of the things that has been confusing me over the last weeks since my re-arrival here.
Along side this you get the pedestrian crossing signs high up above the roadway - which in my opinion is not where I should be looking whilst changing lanes - this is the reason that there was very nearly one less Canadian last week as I avoiding killing hi as he crossed the road - should I be looking up to see the sign or down to see the pedestrian? Hmmm
Aside from trying to cull the locals we have been very busy with trying to settle into our new situation over here. The situation is constantly changing....... Buffy is now busy back at work with Wilderness Supply and I also start to work with the company tomorrow! I already knew Rick the manager and after sitting down for a chat a couple of weeks ago he offered me a job in the store - so tomorrow I will be there at 10am and ready to get going selling kayaks, canoes, shoes and mosquito repellent amongst lots of other stuff. The staff there are a good bunch and I know most of them already so I'm really looking forward to it. I also had the opportunity to join in with a couple of evenings product knowledge lessons - one in the store learning about paddles, pfd's and dry suits and one outside on a local stretch of water trying out some of the kayaks and SUP boards.. Good times!

We are both really happy to have our own place, but cant wait till mid August which is our moving in date. Till then we are going to be shopping for furniture and basically getting all our shit together! We only found the house as we were on our way to see a different one and stopped by as we saw the 'open house' signs. It is perfect for the two of us with room to grow in the coming years. So if anyone fancies it you can come over and stay!
So that is is for now - new job, new house and Buffy sorting through all her stuff at the moment ready to start moving it when we move. Its all going well!!
