For my Canadian readers… and who ever else is interested

I wanted to let you know that Canada has just been rated to have the soundest banking system in the world!  The Canadian banking system received a 6.8 rating out of a possible 7.  Sweden Luxembourg, Denmark and Australia all were tied for second place with a rating of 6.7.

Phew. 

That doesn’t mean that bad stuff can’t happen here as well, but I have to say, reading that article made me feel a little bit of relief.

That’s all for now.  Time to go do the breakfast cleanup.  I made pancakes, waffles, sausages, bacon and fresh lemonade so there is a bit of washing up to do.  Today was the billets last morning here, and I have to say, it was a nice feeling dropping everybody off at the school, unloading their suitcases and bags, giving them a hug good-bye, because even though I got very lucky and they were good boys, it a different kind of comfort in the house when it is just family and close friends. 

I’m off to the dishes.  Bye.
