OUR amazing Mum passed away in Ottawa, Canada today, due to complications from a recent hip operation and her long battle with Dementia. My brothers and sister and I were with her, at her bedside, holding her hand and stroking her brow.

All who knew Dorothy, knew that we had the best Mum ever! And now she can laugh again with our Dad, who has waited 30 years for her, and her dear sister Sylvia, and our sister Sara, and Aunt Margaret and Uncle Jack, and all of the many wonderful friends and family, who we have loved! Rest in Peace! God Bless, Mum!

Flightdeck’s Flying Simulators

Toys for big boys were in abundance when we recently visited Flightdeck in Newmarket.

These machines are used in conjunction with Computer Flight simulator software to train pilots and to enhance the homes of wealthly enthusiasts around the globe. I must admit, I never thought that people would want the cockpit of a 747 in their living room, but apparently they do!

John, Peter and Sam and the gigantic 777 cockpit!

The big machines are $150,000 and up, but Flightdeck also make the beautiful Jetmax, at $15,000, that I would definitely have in my house!

Holding on to Alan Frew

February 13th, 2015 § Comments Off on Holding on to Alan Frew § permalink

With a wink and a nod, no doubt to escape the winter storms in the East, Alan Frew paid a visit to sunny California.

Of course, it was also Grammy week, and Alan was here in Los Angeles connecting with Canadians and other aliens of extraordinary ability for a bit of musical mash.

It’s been more than 20 years since we recorded his fine solo album HOLD ON !

So we started writing a new song, which ain’t half bad…

As you know, Alan sings the newest track for the Meninos Do Morumbi and Friends album project. Stay tuned!
